Ashleigh Blake is a psychologist based in Balgowlah, NSW. She works with people in the local area who are dealing with everyday mental health challenges, plus the tricky stuff that comes with relationships and family life. Her practice is at 314a Sydney Road, Balgowlah NSW 2093.
Ashleigh offers individual therapy sessions, couples therapy sessions, and family therapy sessions. Sessions can suit adults, and in many cases they’re helpful for people who want a steady, practical space to talk things through. Sometimes it’s about coping day to day. Other times it’s about making changes at home, in a partnership, or within the family system.
She uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) as a main approach. In plain terms, CBT focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours connect. That can be useful when someone feels stuck in unhelpful patterns, or when stress builds up over time. Ashleigh also uses stress management techniques, which can help you slow things down and feel more in control, even when life is busy or messy.
Many people come in with worries, work pressure, or feeling run down. At times, it can also be about low mood, feeling overwhelmed, or having trouble switching off. For couples and families, therapy often helps with communication, conflict, and repeating patterns that are hard to break. The goal is usually not just to talk about what happened, but to build clearer ways to handle it going forward.
Because therapy is personal, sessions are paced to suit what’s going on for you. You’ll have room to explain what’s been happening, and then work through steps that feel realistic. Ashleigh keeps things grounded and focused, with a calm approach that doesn’t rush you.
When it comes to training and education, Ashleigh is a qualified psychologist. Her work is guided by trusted psychological methods, including CBT, and she continues to keep her approach practical for real life.
There’s no public detail listed on research papers or clinical trials connected to her practice, but her therapy style is built around what helps people make day-to-day improvements. If you’re looking for support that’s straightforward and warm, Ashleigh is there to help you sort through things, one step at a time.
