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.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
I provide comprehensive counselling support for individuals navigating a wide range of personal, emotional, and situational challenges. My practice specializes in helping clients manage the pressures of perfectionism, high-achievement, and burnout, while offering dedicated space for navigating men’s issues, women’s issues (including perimenopause), and the unique complexities of ADHD or neurodivergence. I offer compassionate guidance for those experiencing mild depression, anxiety, low mood, or profound loneliness, helping you build self-compassion and emotional regulation strategies. Additionally, I support individuals walking through major life disruptions and hardships, including life or career transitions, divorce and relationship strain, grief, and loss of direction. No matter the challenge, my goal is to help you slow down, understand your patterns, and build a more intentional, resilient path forward.

When high standards cross the line into perfectionism, life can feel like an endless treadmill where nothing you do is ever quite "good enough." Driven by an relentless inner critic, fear of making mistakes, or the overwhelming pressure to manage every detail, you may find yourself trapped between burnout on one side and paralysis on the other. You shouldn't have to earn your self-worth through constant productivity, nor do you have to live in fear of falling short.
At Viewpoint Psychological Services in Calgary, our therapists offer a grounding, non-judgmental space to help you step off the performance cycle. Using evidence-based approaches—such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)—we partner with you to quiet the pressure, reframe your relationship with mistakes, and cultivate a deeper sense of internal peace.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Soften the Inner Critic: Untangle your intrinsic self-worth from achievement and flawless execution, learning to treat yourself with genuine kindness when things don't go as planned.
- Overcome Paralysis & Procrastination: Break free from all-or-nothing thinking so you can take confident action without being held back by the fear of imperfection.
- Redefine Sustainable Success: Establish healthy boundaries around work and life, set realistic standards, and discover a lasting sense of worthiness exactly as you are.
You don't have to keep burning yourself out to prove your value. Let’s partner together to help you trade the pressure of perfection for balance, authenticity, and genuine ease.
