A community for imperfect women​
Welcome to The Imperfect Psychologists
Welcome to a community for women led by two clinical psychologists. We are building spaces for women who, like us, want to talk about the things that matter, to embrace and reclaim imperfection and to, build connections with people who 'get it'.
​​Right now, we are offering the Book(ish) Club. A 'sort of' attempt at a free book club where book can mean book, tv show, podcast or even just an idea. Really it is an opportunity to meet as our unfiltered messy selves to talk about things that matter. We will even offer psychological skills along the way.
​
Looking forward, we have lots of exciting things to come, think in person meet ups, more focused courses and retreats.
​
Join us, we cannot wait to meet you!

Who are we?
We’re Jacinta and Hannah, two clinical psychologists who met through work and bonded quickly over psychology, shared values, and, if we’re honest, a lot of reality TV. We come from different backgrounds and lives, but as women we realised we were carrying many of the same things, often coming from the expectations society puts on us, and the ones we put on ourselves. We noticed how often we, and the other women we know, try desperately to 'keep ourselves together', while feeling we are totally blagging it inside. ​
The Imperfect Psychologists grew out of a want to have a space where we could be both professional and human, competent and overwhelmed, all at once. A space where all parts of us are welcome, and importantly a space to bring women together without pressure. Think of this as a quiet rebellion to the wellness industry message telling us to do more.
​
Outside of work you can often find us at a coffee shop, or if we are going all out, at a comedy night. Recent favourites have been Kathryn Ryan and Joanne McNally.

The Book(ish) Club
A purposely imperfect book club by The Imperfect Psychologists
​
Welcome to our book(ish) club a free, monthly online meeting for women who want the chance to speak about subjects that matter. Maybe, like us, you've thought about joining other book clubs, but worried you may struggle actually read the book. If so, welcome, you are in very good company.
​
Each month we offer a theme, alongside some suggested reading, podcasts, videos or even just a question to prompt reflection. You can do all of these, or none. Just turn up, as you are. We hope to see you there.
