Perfectionism
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!

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
Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Perfectionism can look like high achievement from the outside while feeling like relentless pressure on the inside. You may constantly second-guess yourself, struggle to rest, fear making mistakes, or feel that no matter how much you accomplish, it isn't enough.
Taylor specializes in anxiety, perfectionism, self-doubt, and self-worth. Drawing from IFS, somatic, attachment-based, and mindfulness approaches, she helps clients quiet the inner critic, understand the pressure beneath perfectionism, and reconnect with a sense of self that isn't dependent on getting everything right.

Perfectionism
Jonathan Christink
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, BEd, MEd, Registered Psychotherapist
Overcoming perfectionism may seem straightforward in theory, but it can be anything but. It often requires deep shifts from chasing flawless results to embracing the value of progress and effort. It demands that you challenge the harsh internal critic and separate your personal self-worth from your achievements or mistakes. By intentionally practicing self-compassion and accepting imperfection, you can reduce anxiety, prevent burnout, and find genuine satisfaction in your daily life.
