Impossibly high standards tend to produce the opposite of what they promise: procrastination, avoidance, self-criticism and not starting at all. We work on this with both adults and children. In adults it often centres on work or study and is tied to how someone judges their own worth. In children it can look like refusing to attempt something rather than risk doing it imperfectly. The work is on loosening the standard, not on lowering the person's ambition.

Perfectionism
Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
Perfectionism often starts as a way to stay safe and close to others: if you meet every expectation and manage how you come across, maybe you can avoid criticism, disapproval or shame. It can look like people-pleasing, keeping up appearances, or being the high achiever who keeps the peace at home. Over time that pressure can wear you down into burnout, a harsh inner critic, imposter syndrome, or a sense that you're never quite good enough. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we get to know the parts of you that work so hard and the fear of rejection underneath, so your sense of worth rests less on getting everything right.

Perfectionism
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Perfectionism can feel like nothing you do is ever quite enough, a constant internal pressure that leaves little room for rest, mistakes, or self-acceptance. If you're exhausted from chasing a standard that keeps moving, let's work together to help you find more ease and self-compassion.
The first step in working with perfectionism is understanding that your worth was never actually tied to your performance — even though it might feel that way. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where these patterns come from and build a healthier relationship with achievement, rest, and yourself. My approach centers self-compassion, accountability, and untangling your identity from constant striving.
You don't have to earn your worth alone. Let's take the first step toward a more balanced, sustainable way of living.
