About Anthony
Anthony Horsburgh is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems and depression. He also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, addictions, grief and issues around identity and sexuality. Anthony works in a straightforward, respectful way and encourages people to use their own strengths when tackling difficult problems.
He believes the client knows their life best and treats each person as the expert on their own experience.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and on making sense of what has been happening. Anthony aims to create a calm space where people can speak and be heard without judgment. Anthony uses a mix of talking approaches tailored to the person in front of him.
He draws on Client-Centred methods to follow what matters most to the client. He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused techniques and trauma-focused work when these fit the situation. With eight years of professional experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, he brings steady support to people facing change.
He aims for clear goals and small, achievable steps so progress feels manageable. People often come for help with sleep problems, parenting stress, career strain, feelings of isolation and issues around attachment and communication. Anthony encourages realistic plans and honest conversation to help move things forward.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Anthony will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try methods that fit the situation. That collaborative decision means the plan can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when low bandwidth is needed, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging works for people who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy around work, childcare or mobility limits and make it easier to keep regular contact.
