Perfectionism

Kyle Loney

Licensed Professional Counsellor, MC, RCC, CCC, LCT-C
While Perfectionism might seem helpful from the outside, it can come at the cost of feeling inadequate, like we're too much, not enough, broken, worthless, or doomed to never achieve our potential. I work with clients to help them work with their perfectionistic and critical parts, to help them find a balance in their ideal life, and to deal with the potential guilt and shame that result. Moving away from Perfectionism is not about committing to being imperfect, it is about helping yourself to feel satisfied with your best, while continuing to learn and grow.

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

Yanna Martinek

Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I’m highly experienced in working with perfectionism and the ways it can quietly take over. Together we explore what is underneath it—often fear, pressure, or a sense that you have to get things “just right” to be okay. This work isn’t about lowering your goals, but about softening the pressure and rigidity that can make life feel exhausting.

Vancouver, British Columbia therapist: Candice Seligman, counselor/therapist
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
Unhealed core wounds can instigate an anxiety-driven "perfection plan" for happiness that you hope will compensate for your deepest fears about yourself. Negative core wound identities sound like this: I am not good enough. I am not important. I am flawed. I am not worthy. I am not valued. I don’t deserve love. I am not acceptable the way I am. I am too different. I don’t belong. I am not worthy of love. I am a burden. I am weird. I am a loser. I am not wanted. I am inadequate. I am powerless. I am unlovable. I am alone. 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.
