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.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Wanting to get things right can be crippling. Unable to take a step forward until all your ducks are in a row. But the right time is never going to come. I help my clients understand what this strategy of perfectionism is really about for them and how to flatten the button of "perfect" so they can live their lives to their full potential - without crippling fear of judgment or rejection. Ready to take off the shackles of perfectionism and lean into your whole humanity? Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.

Anna Nolan Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Counselling (UQ), ACA Registered Member, Cancer Counselling Professionals Clinical Member.
Perfectionism can bring pressure to meet high expectations, fear of making mistakes and a tendency towards self-criticism or feeling that you are never quite good enough. It can also affect relationships, particularly when the expectations and standards we hold ourselves or others to create tension, conflict or emotional distress. I offer a supportive space to explore these patterns and their impact, develop greater self-understanding and self-compassion, and consider ways of relating to yourself and others with greater flexibility, acceptance and understanding.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Perfectionism can leave you constantly questioning yourself, overthinking decisions or feeling that whatever you do is never quite enough. The pressure to get things right can become exhausting and hold you back. Together, we can understand what's driving these expectations, develop a more balanced way of thinking and help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
