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.

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.
