Nadia Zamzul

Perfectionism
Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Perfectionism can show up as feeling never quite good enough, fear of making mistakes, difficulty resting, overthinking decisions, or carrying pressure to be constantly improving, performing, or meeting very high expectations. You may feel exhausted by trying to get everything right, struggling with self-criticism, or feeling anxious when things are out of control. I work somatically, trauma-informed, with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field, to help release the deeper roots of perfectionistic patterns. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that supports you in deeper understanding of your patterns, feeling safer in your body, more connected to your Self, and more.

Perfectionism
Shelley Klammer
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you silently struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Do you appear successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing emotional pain? I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.
Like all people, you have a unique longing in your heart for something higher and more fulfilling. This differs from perfect ego fantasies seeking to compensate for core wound pain. You might have a genuine soul longing for a beautiful love relationship or financial freedom, for example. You might ache to express who you truly are in the world, or perhaps you want to find your core strength and accomplish something magnificent. Your deeper joy is blocked by unhealed childhood core wound pain, and it can be healed.

Perfectionism
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards; it is often a protective part of the system trying to prevent criticism, rejection, or a sense of failure. Drawing on over 15 years of clinical experience, I help you understand the 'internal critic' that keeps you in a cycle of relentless striving and exhaustion.
We move beyond 'letting go' to exploring the early survival strategies that made being perfect feel like a necessity. By healing the underlying vulnerabilities that this part is trying to shield, we work to replace the weight of perfectionism with a grounded sense of self-worth and the freedom to be authentically yourself—without the constant pressure of 'never being enough.

Perfectionism
Abby Tait
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Perfectionism often looks like high standards and hard work from the outside, but on the inside it can feel like never being able to rest. You might hold yourself to expectations no one else would, replay small mistakes, or feel that your worth depends on getting things right. Over time, that pressure can lead to anxiety, burnout, and a harsh inner critic that’s hard to quiet. I work with women who want to move beyond survival mode and reconnect with a more grounded, compassionate relationship with themselves. Drawing on attachment and psychodynamic-informed approaches alongside Compassion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), we’ll explore where these patterns come from and practise ways of meeting yourself with more kindness and flexibility.

Perfectionism
Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Perfectionism can leave you feeling like nothing you do is ever quite good enough. You might put pressure on yourself to get everything right, struggle to make mistakes, or find it difficult to rest without feeling guilty. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to help you process the experiences and emotions that contribute to these patterns. Together, we can work toward loosening the grip of self-criticism and fear of failure.

Perfectionism
Natalie V. Bochenska
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCAT, Certified Somatic Practitioner
Perfectionism can leave you feeling that nothing you do is ever good enough, even when you're accomplishing everything expected of you. I help clients explore the fears, early experiences, and internal expectations that drive constant self-criticism and pressure to perform. Together, we work toward developing self-compassion, greater flexibility, and a sense of worth that isn't dependent on achievement.

Perfectionism
Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Perfectionism can look like high standards and responsibility on the outside, while internally bringing pressure, self-criticism, overthinking, procrastination, or a persistent sense that what you do is never quite enough. You may find it difficult to rest, make mistakes, disappoint others, or feel satisfied with your accomplishments. I help clients explore what perfectionism is protecting and how it may be connected to belonging, approval, safety, or self-worth. Through mindfulness, relational awareness, and compassionate curiosity, we can loosen rigid expectations and build a more flexible, trusting relationship with yourself—without giving up the parts of you that care deeply about doing things well.

Perfectionism
Tanya Master | Online Somatic & Psychosomatic Consulting
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Trauma-Informed Somatic Practitioner | Integrative Coach
Perfectionism often develops as a protective strategy rather than a personality trait. My approach explores the underlying nervous system patterns that drive overachievement, self-criticism, and chronic pressure.
