[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.

Dr. Devina Daya

I help individuals who struggle with perfectionism develop greater self-compassion, flexibility, and balance in their lives. Together, we explore the underlying beliefs that drive perfectionistic tendencies and build healthier ways of approaching goals, mistakes, and self-worth.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Perfectionism is rarely about high standards; it is often a protective part of the system trying to prevent criticism, rejection, or a sense of failure. Drawing on over 15 years of clinical experience, I help you understand the 'internal critic' that keeps you in a cycle of relentless striving and exhaustion.
We move beyond 'letting go' to exploring the early survival strategies that made being perfect feel like a necessity. By healing the underlying vulnerabilities that this part is trying to shield, we work to replace the weight of perfectionism with a grounded sense of self-worth and the freedom to be authentically yourself—without the constant pressure of 'never being enough.

Tanya Master | Online Somatic & Psychosomatic Consulting
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Trauma-Informed Somatic Practitioner | Integrative Coach
Perfectionism often develops as a protective strategy rather than a personality trait. My approach explores the underlying nervous system patterns that drive overachievement, self-criticism, and chronic pressure.

Kendra Anselmo Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Perfectionism is often a protective strategy developed to create safety, acceptance, or a sense of control. Therapy can help you explore the fears and beliefs beneath the need to get everything right, soften self-criticism, and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself where you can feel worthy without having to constantly prove it.

Québec City's strongly Francophone identity makes it one of the most linguistically distinct therapy markets in Canada — French-language therapy is the standard, and access to English-speaking practitioners is limited, creating real challenges for anglophone and allophone residents. The city's role as Quebec's provincial capital means a significant public service workforce, and therapists here frequently address the particular stresses of institutional careers, political identity, and bureaucratic work. CIUSSS de la Capitale-Nationale provides the public mental health infrastructure, with a private therapy community serving Sainte-Foy, Haute-Ville, and Limoilou. The city's deeply Catholic heritage means many clients seek therapists who can hold nuanced conversations about faith, tradition, and personal change.
