Who is Alistair?
I am a holistic, humanistic, psychodynamic counsellor working with individuals, couples, polycules and diverse relationship dynamics. As a certified, fully insured, and accredited counsellor and hypnotherapist, I take a holistic approach to supporting your mental and emotional well-being. With years of experience in person-centred, emotion-focused, psychodynamic and integrative counselling, I offer therapy that is humanistic, compassionate, inclusive and tailored to your unique needs.

I draw on a range of therapeutic tools, including Hypnotherapy, Regression, Rewind, Family Constellation Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Relationship counselling, Mindfulness Coaching, Emotionally Focused Therapy and Gender, Sexuality, and Relationship Diversities (GSRD) theory. These approaches are particularly effective in addressing the lasting effects of adverse childhood experiences, trauma, and life challenges, helping to reduce their impact and support a more positive self-image.

I bring compassion and confidence to my work with LGBTQ+ individuals, queer, trans, and gender-questioning clients, and those in alternative relationship models (such as CNM/ENM and polyamory), gender-questioning and trans clients, as well as those in kink and power exchange relationships. My approach is rooted in providing a safe, non-judgmental space, enriched by my lived experience within these communities and relationship styles. I understand your unique challenges and dynamics and am here to support you with empathy and respect. I have completed GSRD trainings in addition to ongoing professional development to deepen my understanding beyond personal experience.

For neurodivergent clients, I offer therapy through a neurodivergent-affirming lens, acknowledging that traditional approaches can often overlook your unique ways of thinking, feeling, and experiencing the world. Many clients have shared that this perspective makes therapy feel entirely different: more validating, more accessible, and more aligned with who they are. My approach is grounded in both professional knowledge and lived experience, allowing me to meet you with genuine understanding and respect.

While many of my clients come from these communities, I welcome and support people from all walks of life. My practice is a safe, non-judgmental space where your individuality is respected and your story is heard.

My goal is to help you start loving yourself the way you were always meant to. I will support you every step of the way on your journey to healing and self-acceptance.
