Bianca Amendola
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I work with individuals struggling with perfectionism, self-criticism, fear of failure, and difficulty meeting their own expectations. Therapy focuses on reducing shame, increasing self-compassion, challenging unhelpful standards, and developing a healthier relationship with achievement, productivity, and self-worth.

Monarch Psychology
Psychologist, R Psych, RSW
Free matching calls available to help match you with the best therapist for your unique needs. While having high expectations and wanting to make others happy are generally seen as positive traits, there is a point at which these habits can become destructive. The key factor that determines when these behaviours become harmful is self-esteem. People pleasing and perfectionism are often efforts to prove your worth, driven by a fear that you’re not good enough and that others will reject or abandon you.
This fear can trap you in a cycle of constantly trying to please and be perfect, but no matter what you do, it never feels like enough. Perfection is impossible, and pleasing everyone is equally unattainable, leaving you feeling stuck and resentful when your efforts do not work. Many of these behaviours are rooted in early socialization or challenges within caregiving relationships, including emotional and narcissistic abuse.
Counselling can help you uncover the factors contributing to these behaviours and address them so you can live with more freedom and self-acceptance. By exploring and understanding the underlying issues, you can break free from this cycle and find a healthier, more balanced approach to life.

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!

Kyle Loney
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MC, RCC, CCC, LCT-C
While Perfectionism might seem helpful from the outside, it can come at the cost of feeling inadequate, like we're too much, not enough, broken, worthless, or doomed to never achieve our potential. I work with clients to help them work with their perfectionistic and critical parts, to help them find a balance in their ideal life, and to deal with the potential guilt and shame that result. Moving away from Perfectionism is not about committing to being imperfect, it is about helping yourself to feel satisfied with your best, while continuing to learn and grow.

Saskatoon is Saskatchewan's largest city and an emerging hub for agriculture technology, mining, and biotechnology — sectors that shape an occupational therapy landscape distinct from more diversified Canadian metros. The city has a significant Indigenous population, with First Nations and Métis residents comprising a larger proportion of urban residents than in most Canadian cities outside Winnipeg, and therapists offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded care — including work on intergenerational trauma from residential schools — are an especially important part of the local mental health landscape. Saskatchewan Health Authority provides public mental health services, while the University of Saskatchewan's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local community. Saskatoon's cold winters and geographic isolation contribute to seasonal mood challenges that therapists here address as a recurring clinical priority.
