Allan | Integrative Counsellor

Introduction

I am an experienced Counsellor based in Shrewsbury centre. The building I use is comfortable and near to transport links and car parking. I also work on line via Teams, Whats App, Face Time and telephone.

I have worked for a large Police Force where I saw clients with a wide range of conditions. I have also worked for a large Bereavment Charity where I supported clients suffering from loss.

I see adult clients and can help with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and Trauma related issues such as PTSD.

I am qualified in EMDR a Therapy that works for a number of issues including historic abuse. A big advantage of EMDR is you don't need to tell me the issue you want help with, EMDR is a treatment where the brain heals itself. We can feel shame about things that have happened to us and this may put us off asking for help, EMDR is excellent for shame related issues.

Please message me for a no pressure chat to explore how I can help you further.
Thanks Allan.

The client reported "I can now talk about it without going into melt down, I still remember it but the power I used to feel in my body has gone" This was treated in 8 sessions.

I treated a client who was afraid of horses, after 6 sessions of EMDR she was able to stroke a horse without fear.

I have supported a client with PTSD, the client had seen multiple Therapists, after 15 sessions of Counselling and EMDR the client reported" I've never had a Counsellor that understood me, I don't understand what helped me but after holding the tappers and thinking about the accident it felt like the memory was in the distance with no emotion now in it"
