Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Perfectionism looks like high standards from the outside, but inside it's a harsh inner critic that moves the goalposts every time you get close. The procrastination, the burnout, the sense that nothing you do is ever quite enough: it's a heavy way to live. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space to understand where that critical voice came from, what it's been trying to protect, and how to soften it. The goal isn't to lower your standards, it's to genuinely understand yourself, replace self-criticism with habits that actually nourish you, and discover that you're allowed to be human. Together we'll work toward feeling more at ease, more self-accepting, and more equipped to pursue what matters without punishing yourself along the way.

Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling
Registered Social Worker, Associate Certified Coach, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider MSW, RSW, ACC, ADHD-CCSP
I often assist clients with navigating and recovering from perfectionism. As a recovering perfectionist myself, I understand what you may be going through. Though I will tailor my approach to meet your unique needs, I often use Internal Family Systems Therapy. This approach can help you understand, and eventually befriend, your inner critic or perfectionist. My goal is to create more inner harmony between your perfectionist part and other parts of you that can help balance out your perfectionistic tendencies. Based in Toronto, I provide virtual counselling to clients across Ontario and coaching to clients across Canada. I've been in practice since 2015. Reach out anytime to learn more or schedule a free consultation. I'd love to hear from you!

Perfectionism can create constant pressure, fear of failure, self-criticism, and emotional exhaustion. Therapy helps individuals challenge unrealistic expectations, develop healthier coping patterns, and build greater balance, flexibility, and self-acceptance.

Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
I support individuals who struggle with perfectionism. Are you someone who feels constant pressure to get everything right, fear making mistakes, or never feel “good enough"? While perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside, it often comes with stress, self-criticism, and exhaustion.
In our work together, we gently explore the patterns behind perfectionism and help you build more self-compassion, flexibility, and balance.

Holding yourself to high standards can look like success on the outside, but often comes with pressure and self-doubt underneath. Therapy helps you understand where that pressure comes from and shift the patterns so you can still care about your goals without feeling constantly weighed down by them.

St. John's is the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador and one of North America's oldest cities, perched on the Atlantic coast with a distinct cultural identity—Newfoundland's unique vernacular, music, and social traditions are a strong source of community pride and solidarity that provides genuine protective factors against isolation. The mental health landscape is shaped by the boom-and-bust character of the offshore oil industry that employs many residents, the generational grief from the cod fishery's collapse in 1992, and the seasonal affective challenges of a city known for fog, overcast skies, and long Atlantic winters. Memorial University's medical school contributes to the health workforce, and mental health services are provided through NL Health Services. Common therapy concerns include FIFO oil industry stress and relationship strain, economic anxiety tied to energy sector volatility, seasonal depression, and the grief of a community carrying significant intergenerational loss from the collapse of the fishery.
