Hollie McAllister

I currently have face to face availability on Fridays in The Courtyard in Carrickfergus.

I have availability for video and telephone work at various times during the week. Please get in touch to see if I have an appointment to suit you.

I am a warm and friendly Integrative Counsellor, BACP Accredited, fully insured with 10+ years experience. I am trauma-informed and work integratively - this means I draw on many theories, skills and techniques to tailor my approach to suit you.

I offer a non-judgmental, warm and safe environment for you to begin your counselling journey. I give you space to be heard and understood, as well as find solutions. I work with clients who present with many different challenges including anxiety, depression, grief and loss (including pregnancy loss), relationship difficulties, anger and trauma (including sexual trauma). 

I have specialised training to practice cognitive behavioural therapy, trauma therapy and to assist my clients with issues relating to their relationship with food and body image. I am an LGBTQ+ affirmative therapist and alli, and I celebrate diversity in all its forms. I am holistic in my approach and place value on the mind-body connection - I practice Reiki and clients can also avail of this to aid their healing journey.

I can conduct an initial no obligation consultation with you over the phone to answer any initial questions you have. I offer telephone, video or face to face sessions. Please call, text or email to get booked in.

Having had my own life-changing experience with personal therapy, my goal is to pass that feeling of empowerment and peace on to others. Counselling can help you.

Before your first session, I will email a copy of the counselling contract which will include a request for your G.P details and an emergency contact name and number (please ask this person's permission).

During our first session we will get to know each other and I will complete an assessment to ensure I can help you.
