Hugh Allan, LCSW

 is the founder of Move Me Brightly, a practice grounded in the belief that therapy offers a space to better understand yourself, work through life’s challenges, and move forward with greater clarity and intention.

Before becoming a therapist, Hugh spent 25 years as a trader in the finance industry. Working in fast-paced, high-pressure environments, he developed a deep understanding of the stress, uncertainty, and emotional demands that many people carry, especially those in demanding careers. Over time, he felt called toward a different kind of work: one rooted in connection, meaning, and helping others navigate difficult moments in their lives.

Hugh works with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, compulsive behaviors, and major life transitions. He has a particular interest in supporting professionals who are balancing high expectations while quietly managing the weight that comes with them.

His approach to therapy is collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in respect. He believes therapy is not about being told what to do, but about creating space to better understand yourself so that meaningful, intentional change becomes possible.

At the heart of his work is a simple idea: when we can gently bring light to what we’ve been carrying, we begin to relate to it differently—and from there, we can move forward.
