Shelley Klammer
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you silently struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Do you appear successful, cheerful, and emotionally stable on the outside while privately experiencing emotional pain? I specialize in working with women who have perfectionist tendencies and currently feel a disconnection from their authentic selves.
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.

Natalie V. Bochenska
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCAT, Certified Somatic Practitioner
Perfectionism can leave you feeling that nothing you do is ever good enough, even when you're accomplishing everything expected of you. I help clients explore the fears, early experiences, and internal expectations that drive constant self-criticism and pressure to perform. Together, we work toward developing self-compassion, greater flexibility, and a sense of worth that isn't dependent on achievement.

Sage Ariel Seguin
Registered Psychotherapist, QRP, MACP
Perfectionism in my clients is rarely about high standards — it's often a survival strategy formed alongside ADHD, neurodivergence, rejection sensitivity, and early caretaking roles. We work to understand what your perfectionism has been protecting you from, rather than just trying to dial it down. Using IFS, EFT, and mindfulness, sessions help you loosen the grip of 'never enough' and build a steadier sense of self that doesn't depend on performance.

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, ADHD Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Perfectionism can lead to overthinking, procrastination, avoidance, and harsh self-criticism. You may delay starting because you are afraid you will not do something well enough. I help clients develop more realistic expectations, tolerate uncertainty, and take meaningful action without waiting for perfect conditions.
