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.

Dr. Linda Troselj
Psychologist, DPsych (Clin)
I help people manage perfectionism by exploring the underlying beliefs and pressures that contribute to feeling that things must be done perfectly. Therapy focuses on challenging unhelpful thinking patterns and developing a greater sense of self-compassion. I draw from evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT) to help equip you with coping skills that can help ease the stress and anxiety that perfectionism brings.

Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Wanting to get things right can be crippling. Unable to take a step forward until all your ducks are in a row. But the right time is never going to come. I help my clients understand what this strategy of perfectionism is really about for them and how to flatten the button of "perfect" so they can live their lives to their full potential - without crippling fear of judgment or rejection. Ready to take off the shackles of perfectionism and lean into your whole humanity? Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.

Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
Perfectionism often starts as a way to stay safe and close to others: if you meet every expectation and manage how you come across, maybe you can avoid criticism, disapproval or shame. It can look like people-pleasing, keeping up appearances, or being the high achiever who keeps the peace at home. Over time that pressure can wear you down into burnout, a harsh inner critic, imposter syndrome, or a sense that you're never quite good enough. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we get to know the parts of you that work so hard and the fear of rejection underneath, so your sense of worth rests less on getting everything right.

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.
