Perfectionism can leave you feeling like nothing you do is ever good enough, driving anxiety, self criticism, procrastination, and constant pressure to meet impossible standards. Together, we'll explore the beliefs and patterns that fuel perfectionism, build self compassion, and develop healthier ways of measuring your worth that aren't based on achievement alone. My goal is to help you let go of unrealistic expectations so you can feel more confident, balanced, and free to enjoy your life.

Perfectionism comes in many forms and often at a cost. But oftentimes, it's because we're afraid of what happens when we're not perfect. I will work with you to understand yourself, face your desire to be perfect and the emotions underneath, and together, we can work on overcoming the need to be perfect.

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 isn't about striving for excellence—it is a survival strategy designed to protect you from the pain of feeling not good enough. On the outside, your high standards make you look incredibly driven, successful, and reliable. But privately, the pressure to never make a mistake leaves you trapped in a relentless cycle of overthinking, chronic procrastination, and severe high-achievement burnout. You are left feeling deeply exhausted, stuck, and hyper-focused on what you should be doing, rather than who you actually are.I specialize in helping clients break free from the suffocating weight of perfectionism, self-doubt, and the chronic people-pleasing that often tags along with it. In our collaborative space, we won't try to "fix" you or strip away your drive. Instead, we use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to gently untangle unhelpful mindsets, quiet your loud inner critic, and build practical everyday tools rooted in self-compassion.Because perfectionism keeps your body in a state of constant, low-grade alarm, traditional talk therapy can sometimes keep you trapped in your head. To bypass that intellectual armor, we integrate somatic tools, breathing techniques, and visual exercises alongside neuro-experiential tools like Brainspotting. Looking beneath the surface allows us to safely access, process, and release the hidden physical tension, fear, and years of stuck emotional material driving your anxiety. Together, we will calm your nervous system so you can step out of chronic overwhelm and into an authentic, intentional, and aligned way of living.

Holding yourself to high standards can look like success on the outside, but often comes with pressure and self-doubt underneath. Therapy helps you understand where that pressure comes from and shift the patterns so you can still care about your goals without feeling constantly weighed down by them.
