Therapy for perfectionists who are tired of living according to everyone else’s expectations

Hi! I’m Liz, a Toronto-based therapist for busy and overwhelmed adults who want to find fulfillment on their own terms.

You can soften your perfectionism 

without lowering your standards

I specialize in working with anxious adults who often feel preoccupied with how others view them and whether or not they’re measuring up to expectations. You might constantly double-check your work to make sure it’s perfect, struggle to set boundaries with friends and family, or consider yourself a people-pleaser who ties their identity to their career. 

 

This is a space where you can catch your breath. 

 

Many wonderful traits have helped you get to where you are today. But perhaps at some point, the noise of outside pressures and impossible standards started drowning out your inner voice. The voice that tells you whether or not the things you're chasing are actually making you happy. 

 

I believe you can embrace the determination and grit that have guided you this far while still making room for self-compassion and balance.

Some call me Elizabeth, most call me Liz

Clients describe me as warm, direct, surprisingly funny, and the “real deal.” One client refers to me as "Mini-Yoda," and I'm still figuring out how to feel about that. 

 

When you work with me, what you see is what you get. Over the years, I’ve found that therapy’s power to heal is truly unlocked when it comes from a place that’s real and candid.

 

You can expect a sincere interaction with another human being who sees you, the person, and not a collection of symptoms or problems.

The common thread between the clients I support is…

They've worked hard to get to where they are, but something about the status quo isn’t working anymore, and it's time for a change.

 

Here are a few more clues we could be a good match:

 

  • You struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, self-esteem, or relationship issues
     

  • You’ve put in a lot of effort to follow the path you were “supposed” to take, but now you’re feeling exhausted and full of doubt
     

  • You have people-pleasing tendencies and find it difficult to set boundaries
     

  • You've thought about starting therapy (or coming back to therapy) for a while, but convinced yourself that you needed to figure everything out all on your own
     

  • You're looking for an individualized experience that focuses on your unique circumstances and preferences, with a therapist who will take your goals and experiences seriously
