About Dr Shimu Allan

Dr Shimu Allan is a registered Clinical Psychologist with the Health and Care Professionals Council (HCPC), offering a range of evidence-based psychological therapies tailored to individual and relational needs.

Dr Allan provides individual therapy and clinical psychological assessment, drawing on additional training in cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches. For couples seeking support, couples counselling is available to help navigate relationship challenges and improve communication.
