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!

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Perfectionism can feel like a constant push to meet impossibly high standards, often leaving you stressed, critical of yourself, or afraid of making mistakes. It can affect work, relationships, and overall wellbeing, creating a sense of pressure that never truly goes away.
In therapy, I provide a supportive space to explore these patterns, understand the underlying fears or beliefs, and develop healthier ways of relating to yourself and your goals. Together, we work on building self-compassion, realistic expectations, and confidence, helping you achieve growth without being weighed down by perfection.
15 Years Experience
Online in Hamilton, ON Ontario (Online Only)
Hamilton is undergoing rapid transformation from a steel city to an emerging arts, tech, and health-sciences hub, and therapists here frequently work with the tension between a proud working-class identity and the changes brought by gentrification and urban renewal. McMaster University and McMaster University Medical Centre — one of Canada's leading health research institutions — provide institutional mental health resources and an active clinical training ecosystem. The city's significant immigrant population from South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America drives demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists. Hamilton's affordability relative to Toronto has made it a destination for those priced out of the GTA, and therapists regularly address the adjustment challenges of relocation and community rebuilding.
