Giving creates momentum.

When women are supported, heard, and encouraged to lead, communities grow stronger. Today on International Women’s Day, we recognise the women in our lives and in our profession whose contributions make a lasting difference.

Psychological support is not about mystery or endless sessions. It is a structured, evidence informed process that helps people make sense of their experiences and work towards feeling better in their everyday lives.

For many, understanding what therapy actually involves can make the first step feel more manageable.

Appointments are available at our Randwick and Marrickville clinics.

Emotions don’t always need fixing. Often, they need understanding.

Learning to pause, reflect, and respond rather than react can reduce emotional intensity and support clearer decision making. These everyday skills help create space between feeling and action.

If you’d like support developing these skills, appointments are available at our Randwick and Marrickville clinics - https://f.mtr.cool/vsdpwzywlr

Do I have to disclose a diagnosis at work?

In Australia, disclosure is a choice unless safety or formal workplace adjustments are involved. Some people disclose. Others focus on what supports their performance. Many choose not to share diagnostic labels.

Neuropsychology assessments help clarify support needs and next steps, whether or not disclosure occurs.

The start of a new lunar year offers a natural pause.

The Year of the Horse symbolises endurance and forward movement. Growth, whether personal or emotional, is often steady and built over time.

Wishing a grounded and hopeful year ahead to all who celebrate.

We are so pleased to welcome Lauren Gale, BSc(Hons), MPsych(Clin) to the Aperture Psychology team.

Lauren is a warm and collaborative psychologist who creates a safe and supportive space for clients to explore what’s going on and develop practical tools for meaningful change. She works with adults of all ages and older adolescents, supporting concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, burnout, perfectionism, sleep difficulties, and emotion regulation challenges.

Lauren has a particular interest in anxiety and obsessive-compulsive related disorders, as well as PTSD and trauma related difficulties. Her work is grounded in evidence-based practice, drawing primarily on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Schema informed approaches.

Lauren is available for appointments in person at our Marrickville practice on Mondays and Fridays, and via Telehealth on Mondays and Fridays.

To book an appointment with Lauren, visit our website or contact the clinic directly.

Harry called.

He was looking for inspiration.

The name Aperture entered the conversation.

Now his new single shares our name.

Letting the light in feels right for us too.

You don’t need to have everything worked out before starting therapy.

Many people come to therapy feeling confused, stuck, or unsure how to make sense of what they’re experiencing. A key part of the early work is taking time to understand what’s happening, how it developed, and what might help. This process of assessment and shared understanding often helps people feel heard, validated, and clearer about the path forward.

At Aperture Psychology, we provide evidence-based psychological therapy and assessment, supporting people at different stages of life.

We welcome clients at our Randwick and Marrickville practices.

Private practice can be deeply rewarding.
It can also be isolating.

Between full caseloads, case notes, and the admin that quietly expands around the work, opportunities for meaningful professional conversation can slip away.

For many psychologists, this becomes most noticeable after formal training ends. The regular space to reflect, challenge ideas, and learn alongside peers is suddenly gone.

That’s why we created our Group Clinical Supervision Program. A small, structured space where clinicians can think together, share perspectives, and stay connected to the craft of the work.

Led by Peter Walker, the program brings clinicians together around real cases, real questions, and real practice.

If this sounds like the kind of professional space you’d value in 2026, you can learn more about the program here:

When anger feels out of proportion, it is often linked to how a situation is being interpreted rather than the situation itself.

Strong anger responses are commonly maintained by rigid expectations, underlying beliefs, and unrecognised stress, often reflected in patterns of ‘should’, ‘must’, and ‘ought’ thinking. These cognitive appraisals can intensify emotional and physiological reactions to everyday frustrations.

Therapy can help identify and evaluate these patterns, understand the function of anger, and develop more flexible thinking and behavioural strategies — without suppressing or invalidating emotional experience.

We offer evidence-based anger treatment with experienced clinical psychologists at our Randwick and Marrickville clinics.

ADHD doesn’t show up the same way for everyone. That’s why assessment needs to be comprehensive.

Our process includes detailed diagnostic interviews, input from key people where appropriate, validated rating scales, and cognitive testing. Together, these pieces form a clear picture of strengths, challenges, and support needs.

Assessments conclude with a feedback session and written report with personalised recommendations, so you leave with understanding and direction.

Work starts again.
Routines creep back in.
The inbox wakes up 😅

Some of us return feeling energised and motivated (ready to tackle the year… or at least the emails).

Others return feeling flat, foggy, or overwhelmed — still recovering from Christmas pudding, too much sun, the Ashes celebrations 🏏, or simply getting the kids back to school.

Both responses make sense.

Transitions can be motivating and draining.
Even familiar change asks something of our nervous system.

Noticing how this shift is landing for you — and meeting it with a bit of self-compassion — can help set a steadier tone for the year ahead.
