Impossibly high standards tend to produce the opposite of what they promise: procrastination, avoidance, self-criticism and not starting at all. We work on this with both adults and children. In adults it often centres on work or study and is tied to how someone judges their own worth. In children it can look like refusing to attempt something rather than risk doing it imperfectly. The work is on loosening the standard, not on lowering the person's ambition.

Perfectionism
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in mental health work, I have a good understanding of perfectionism and how it impacts the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner perfectionistic issues better and learn practical strategies to support increased emotional regulation skills, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying often subconscious issues without the need to discuss the details of those issues. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of shame created from the perfection oriented behaviours behind.
My aim is to assist you with your perfectionism to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Perfectionism
John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Perfectionism can leave you constantly questioning yourself, overthinking decisions or feeling that whatever you do is never quite enough. The pressure to get things right can become exhausting and hold you back. Together, we can understand what's driving these expectations, develop a more balanced way of thinking and help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

I support clients struggling with perfectionism by exploring the thoughts, fears, and pressures that drive the need to be ‘perfect.’ Together, we work on cultivating self-compassion, setting realistic expectations, and embracing growth over judgment, helping you live with greater ease and confidence.

Perfectionism
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Perfectionism can feel like nothing you do is ever quite enough, a constant internal pressure that leaves little room for rest, mistakes, or self-acceptance. If you're exhausted from chasing a standard that keeps moving, let's work together to help you find more ease and self-compassion.
The first step in working with perfectionism is understanding that your worth was never actually tied to your performance — even though it might feel that way. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where these patterns come from and build a healthier relationship with achievement, rest, and yourself. My approach centers self-compassion, accountability, and untangling your identity from constant striving.
You don't have to earn your worth alone. Let's take the first step toward a more balanced, sustainable way of living.
