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.

Jeremy Finkelstein
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Perfectionism can look like high standards, overthinking, procrastination, people-pleasing, or fear of making mistakes. Therapy can help you loosen the grip of perfectionism and move toward more flexible, values-based action.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Are you someone who has a hard time coping when you cannot meet your expectations for yourself? Perhaps you are so consumed by these expectations that you shut down and are unable to try at all. Perfectionism is not just about wanting to do things perfectly. It is an expression of rigid standards for ourselves that can lead to intense emotional suffering, avoidance and procrastination, unstable self-worth and constant overthinking. I use a blend of self-compassion strategies, narrative therapy and emotion regulation techniques to help you break out of shame spiralling and learn how to build more flexibility in your thinking.

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!

Shelley Klammer
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Unhealed core wounds can instigate an anxiety-driven "perfection plan" for happiness that you hope will compensate for your deepest fears about yourself. Negative core wound identities sound like this: I am not good enough. I am not important. I am flawed. I am not worthy. I am not valued. I don’t deserve love. I am not acceptable the way I am. I am too different. I don’t belong. I am not worthy of love. I am a burden. I am weird. I am a loser. I am not wanted. I am inadequate. I am powerless. I am unlovable. I am alone.
Like all people, you have a unique longing in your heart for something higher and more fulfilling. This differs from perfect ego fantasies seeking to compensate for core wound pain. You might have a genuine soul longing for a beautiful love relationship or financial freedom, for example. You might ache to express who you truly are in the world, or perhaps you want to find your core strength and accomplish something magnificent. Your deeper joy is blocked by unhealed childhood core wound pain, and it can be healed.

Perfectionism can create constant pressure to achieve, perform, or meet impossible standards, often leading to anxiety, self-criticism, burnout, and feeling “never good enough.” I support individuals who struggle with perfectionism by helping them better understand the patterns behind their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours while developing greater self-compassion and balance.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Perfectionism is often about far more than having high standards. It can be deeply connected to trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, self-worth, fear of failure, people-pleasing, or the painful belief that mistakes somehow make you less worthy.
For many people, perfectionism is not really about excellence — it is about protection. Protection from shame, criticism, rejection, or feeling like you are not enough.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you understand what perfectionism may actually be trying to protect you from. Together, we work to reduce shame, challenge exhausting patterns, build self-trust, and create more flexible, realistic ways of living that do not require you to constantly prove your worth.

Emilie Wheaton
Pre-Licensed Professional, Pre-Licensed Clinician
Perfectionism often goes beyond simply wanting things done well and can lead to chronic pressure, self-criticism, burnout, anxiety, and fear of failure. Therapy can help uncover the underlying patterns driving perfectionism while supporting clients in developing more self-compassion, flexibility, and balance.

I help high-achieving individuals break free from perfectionism and the constant pressure to “get it right.” Therapy focuses on softening self-criticism, addressing underlying fears, and building a more sustainable, self-compassionate way of being.
