A community for imperfect women​
Welcome to The Imperfect Psychologists, a community for women who want to connect and reclaim imperfection, guided by two psychologists.
Life is tough, and now more than ever, we know that real connections are one of our greatest strengths, and so we founded The Imperfect Psychologists in the hope of bringing women together. We are building a place where women are seen, valued and heard, with messiness and imperfection encouraged.
​
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, caring deeply about others, 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: the pressure to keep showing up, the invisible mental load of juggling work, relationships, family, and everyone else’s needs, and the constant feeling that we should be doing more while somehow doing it better. Some days we felt grounded and capable; other days we needed space to think, sent “my head is going to explode” messages, and survived on coffee and snacks.
​
The Imperfect Psychologists grew out of that in-between space where we could be both professional and human, competent and overwhelmed, all at once. As women, we’re constantly holding multiple roles and different parts of ourselves, the capable one, the caring one, the tired one, the questioning one. We wanted to create a space where all of those parts are welcome. You don’t need fixing or performing here; you just need space to reflect, connect, and maybe just breathe for a minute. We’ll bring the questions, you bring the snacks (and blankets).

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 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.
