[EN] Perfectionism can look like high standards, but it can also mean constantly monitoring yourself, preparing for what could go wrong, or feeling that a small mistake says something important about your worth. We can explore what happens when you do not know the right answer, disappoint someone, or cannot meet the standard you have set for yourself. Working relationally and somatically can make the pressure of perfectionism more visible in the moment, including how it shapes your body, choices, and relationships.
[FR] Le perfectionnisme peut ressembler à des standards élevés, mais aussi à une surveillance constante de soi, à l’anticipation de ce qui pourrait mal aller ou à l’impression qu’une petite erreur dit quelque chose d’important sur ta valeur. Nous pouvons explorer ce qui se passe lorsque tu ne connais pas la bonne réponse, que tu déçois quelqu’un ou que tu n’atteins pas le standard que tu t’étais fixé. Le travail relationnel et somatique permet de mieux voir la pression du perfectionnisme au moment où elle apparaît, notamment dans ton corps, tes choix et tes relations.

Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
It is incredibly common to trick yourself into believing that perfectionism is the secret to your success—that if you let go of that relentless internal pressure, you will completely lose your drive. In reality, that pressure traps you in an exhausting cycle where every task, email, or interaction feels like a high-stakes test of your fundamental value as a person. This doesn't just drive achievement; it drives intense burnout, chronic procrastination, and a deeply fried nervous system. Our work together is not about forcing you to abandon your high standards. Instead, we are going to untangle those standards from your self-worth. We will challenge the rigid, all-or-nothing thought patterns that keep you paralyzed, and help you build a much more sustainable way to pursue your goals. You can absolutely remain ambitious and driven while also experiencing genuine inner peace—and maybe even finding some fun in the messy imperfections of life.

Dr. Matthew Clyde
Psychologist, PhD
Perfectionism isn't just about high standards; it’s often a shield used to protect against the fear of failure or judgment. When "good enough" never feels like enough, you end up in a cycle of procrastination, burnout, and self-criticism. In therapy, we work on decoupling your self-worth from your achievements, allowing you to pursue excellence with self-compassion rather than the constant lash of "shoulds."
