Dr. Devina Daya

Perfectionism
Angelica Esposito - AE Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, EMDR Therapist
Perfectionism can be a powerful driving force, but it can also become exhausting when nothing ever feels quite good enough. If you're struggling with self-criticism, fear of making mistakes, overthinking, or feeling that your worth depends on your achievements, therapy can help you explore what may be underneath these patterns. Together, we can work to understand the beliefs and experiences that fuel perfectionism, process the fears connected to failure or judgment, and develop a more compassionate and flexible relationship with yourself. The goal isn’t to stop caring or striving for excellence, but to feel confident in who you are—even when things aren’t perfect.

Perfectionism
Alison Taylor
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, GIT.Dip, CAPT, CRPO
Perfectionism can feel like constant pressure: to get it right, to not make mistakes, to meet expectations that may not even feel like your own. In our work together, we bring curiosity about your unique lived experience to exploring how perfectionism shows up in your thoughts, body, and relationships. We might gently ask: Who are you being perfect for? By whose standards? What do you imagine might happen if you made a mistake? How were mistakes handled in your home growing up? Rather than treating perfectionism as a personal flaw, we can understand it as a relational, contextual response to a situation/dynamic, a way of organizing/modifying yourself that developed in response to your environment. The existential statement underneath perfectionism could be, “In order to belong in this family, I must never mess up” or “I live my life as if I’ll be invisible/alone/worthless unless I am perfect.” Put in these contexts, perfectionistic strategies are a matter of life and death and basic survival. By slowing down and building awareness around how you got here, we can begin to tease apart these patterns, reconnect with what *you* need and value, and find more flexible, compassionate ways of being with yourself. It’s always a risk being more yourself, and I have huge respect for the ways you’ve learned to keep yourself safe and connected (basic human needs, btw). As we unravel your perfectionistic magnificence, you will likely surprise yourself with the brilliance and creativity that’s been hiding there all along, waiting for the right support to emerge.

Perfectionism
Reegan Bushby
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside while creating significant anxiety, self-criticism, procrastination, or fear of making mistakes underneath. Therapy can help you challenge unrealistic expectations, develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself, and pursue meaningful goals without feeling that everything has to be perfect.

Perfectionism
Lauren Hone
Registered Psychotherapist, CCC, Registered Psychotherapist, Yoga teacher
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.
