At Rise & Shine Counselling, our goal is to help every person feel...
CONFIDENT & EMPOWERED
UNDERSTOOD & RESPECTED
SAFE & GROUNDED
"You don't have to pretend everything is okay."
Perfectionism and high achievement can look like success on the outside, but internally they often come with constant pressure, self-criticism, and difficulty resting or feeling satisfied. Over time, this can lead to anxiety, burnout, procrastination, or a sense that nothing is ever “good enough.”
​
Therapy for perfectionism and high achievers provides space to explore the beliefs driving these patterns, develop healthier standards, and build self-worth that isn’t tied solely to performance. With the right support, it’s possible to maintain motivation while creating more balance, flexibility, and fulfillment in your daily life.
​
At Rise & Shine Counselling & Wellness, we're here to walk beside you on your mental health journey.

ABOUT US
Why Work With
Rise & Shine Counselling & Wellness
"Where healing turns into growth, and growth turns into joy."
So often, we know deep down what we need to feel fulfilled, but something gets in the way. We fall into patterns that no longer serve us, in our relationships, our work, or how we care for ourselves. Over time, those habits quietly shape our days, and our days become our lives.
​
At Rise & Shine Counselling & Wellness, we believe that change is always possible. With the right support, you can break free from old cycles, reconnect with what truly matters, and start living in alignment with your values and goals.
​
We’re inspired by the idea that growth isn’t about becoming someone new. Rather, it’s about uncovering who you’ve been all along. Together, we’ll help you rediscover your confidence, resilience, and sense of purpose so you can rise into a life that feels grounded, intentional, and full of possibility.
