About

Dr Ashleigh Schweinsberg.

Clinical Psychologist helping people understand what is happening—and what may help next.

Clinical profile

Careful psychology for complex questions.

Good psychological work should do more than name a problem. It should help make sense of the experiences, patterns and circumstances shaping what is happening—and provide a clearer way forward.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with more than 15 years of experience in therapy, psychological assessment, supervision and psychology education. I work with children, adolescents and adults across the lifespan. People often come to OWL with questions that have been difficult to answer, concerns that overlap, or experiences they want to understand more fully.

My approach is thoughtful, collaborative and direct. In therapy, we develop a shared understanding of what is happening and work towards goals that matter to you. In assessment, I bring together developmental history, current functioning, standardised measures and clinical judgement rather than relying on a single score. I explain my reasoning, findings and any limitations in clear language.

My work includes psychological therapy, EMDR, ADHD, autism and cognitive assessment, and Cogmed Working Memory Training. I also provide structured professional supervision for provisional psychologists, clinical registrars and registered psychologists.

Across each area of my work, I value careful thinking, honest conversations and psychology that has a practical purpose.

The wider team

What is a provisional psychologist?

A provisional psychologist holds provisional registration with the Psychology Board of Australia and is completing a supervised practice pathway towards general registration. They are not yet generally registered. At OWL, provisional psychologists work within defined roles and competencies under Board Approved supervision.

What supervised psychology practice can offer

Their role is more than listening or offering general advice. Psychology training helps them understand how thoughts, emotions, behaviour, relationships and life experiences can affect wellbeing. Depending on their approved role, they may help a client understand what is happening, set meaningful goals, practise evidence-informed strategies and review whether those strategies are helping.

Each clinician’s profile clearly states their registration status, experience, areas of practice and supervision arrangements.
