Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Perfectionism can often look like holding yourself to high standards, but underneath it may feel like pressure, self-criticism, and a fear of making mistakes or not being “good enough.” You might notice difficulty slowing down, overthinking decisions, or feeling like your worth is tied to achievement, productivity, or how well you perform. While perfectionism can sometimes feel motivating, it often comes with anxiety, burnout, and a constant sense that things could fall apart.
In our work together, we’ll explore the underlying experiences and beliefs that have shaped these patterns of perfectionism, with a focus on understanding rather than self-judgment. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll work with the cognitive, emotional and nervous system aspects of perfectionism, helping you create more flexibility, self-compassion, and balance. The aim is to help you feel safer being imperfect and more connected to your own internal sense of worth.
I draw from approaches such as ACT, IFS, Mindfulness-Based CBT, EMDR, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll build practical strategies to reduce overwhelm and self-criticism while also supporting deeper healing and a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
Perfectionism has its origins in such beliefs as someone feeling deep down, even without realizing it, that they are not good enough, and they need to be perfect to make up for it. Or, because their circumstances and life are imperfect, they want to create control where they can. They often feel unhappy and critical with themselves, and 'burnt out' from the effort involved in trying to achieve perfection, which could accurately be called 'a race with no finish line'. It can be formed from childhood experiences where they felt out of control, or unsafe, etc., which likely developed an unconscious belief while they were young. Rapid Transformational Therapy is very helpful to address the core reason for the need for perfection, then to interrupt it and release it, and replace it with empowering, positive suggestions directly to the subconscious mind, creating lasting change. The personalized recording would focus on ideas of self-acceptance and visualization of not needing perfectionism, etc.

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.

Gal Zohar
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., Registered Psychotherapist
Perfectionism often goes far beyond wanting things done well. It can stem from fear of failure, self-criticism, people-pleasing, or feeling like your worth is tied to achievement. Over time, this can lead to anxiety, burnout, shame, and difficulty feeling “good enough,” no matter how much you accomplish. Together, we’ll explore the underlying patterns and pressures driving perfectionism, build self-compassion, and work toward a healthier, more sustainable relationship with yourself.
