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
Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
For many women, perfectionism is not simply about high standards or wanting to “do things well”.
Often it develops as a way of feeling safe, accepted and emotionally protected.
Many women living abroad become highly skilled at monitoring themselves:
how they speak,
how they appear,
how they are perceived,
whether they are doing enough,
achieving enough,
adapting enough.
Over time, this constant self-monitoring can create emotional exhaustion, anxiety, chronic pressure and a nervous system that struggles to fully relax.
For many Italian women living between cultures and expectations, perfectionism can become deeply connected to belonging, identity and the fear of being judged as “too much”, “not enough” or somehow different.
My work explores the deeper emotional and nervous system patterns underneath perfectionism, people pleasing and over-functioning.
I offer a warm, reflective and holistic space where women can begin reconnecting with self-worth, authenticity and inner safety without constantly needing to perform, adapt or prove themselves.
I integrate psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, EFT, embodiment, lifestyle medicine, reflective dialogue and nature-based approaches to support women in moving from chronic pressure toward greater emotional ease, regulation and self-trust.

Perfectionism
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in mental health work, I have a good understanding of perfectionism and how it impacts the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner perfectionistic issues better and learn practical strategies to support increased emotional regulation skills, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying often subconscious issues without the need to discuss the details of those issues. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of shame created from the perfection oriented behaviours behind.
My aim is to assist you with your perfectionism to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
