Perfectionism
Tehmina Ayana Meherali
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.

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.

Perfectionism
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards; it is often a protective part of the system trying to prevent criticism, rejection, or a sense of failure. Drawing on over 15 years of clinical experience, I help you understand the 'internal critic' that keeps you in a cycle of relentless striving and exhaustion.
We move beyond 'letting go' to exploring the early survival strategies that made being perfect feel like a necessity. By healing the underlying vulnerabilities that this part is trying to shield, we work to replace the weight of perfectionism with a grounded sense of self-worth and the freedom to be authentically yourself—without the constant pressure of 'never being enough.

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!

Clients are supported in reducing anxiety and burnout, improving self-worth, and cultivating a more balanced and sustainable way of relating to themselves and their goals.
