I am Dr. Alan McAllister. I have over 40 years of experience providing psychological services. I see therapy as a collaborative process in which you are the expert on yourself. I offer compassionate and non-judgmental guidance to ways of calming the mind and body and breaking out of patterns of thinking and behaving that stand in the way of leading the life you want. From navigating stressful situations to fostering healthier relationships, tackling work challenges, and overcoming emotional and mental health obstacles, I am here to guide and support you on your path to optimal functioning and a more fulfilling life.
My approach to treatment is mindfulness-based and incorporates cognitive-behavioural therapies and mind/body techniques such as hypnosis, meditation, biofeedback, and neurofeedback. I am particularly interested in helping clients deal with overthinking, rumination, and repetitive negative thinking.
Whether we meet in person, by phone, or online, I will provide you with the close and attentive listening, counselling, compassion, and encouragement that you require to deal with your issues and realize your personal goals. Reach out and connect with me by phone or email. I provide a free phone consultation to discuss with you how I can help.
