About Anthony
Anthony Horsburgh is a counsellor with eight years of professional experience who supports men with a wide range of concerns. He helps people facing stress and anxiety, depression, addiction difficulties, grief, relationship strain and family problems. He also works with issues linked to gender and sexual identity, sleeping problems, career strain and compassion fatigue.
Anthony believes each person knows their own story best. He approaches sessions with a focus on the client's strengths and what they want to change. This means practical conversations about what is getting in the way now and small steps that can make life feel more manageable.
In the sessions Anthony uses methods drawn from client-centred work and cognitive behavioural approaches. He also uses solution-focused techniques and trauma-focused work when these fit the situation. He explains options clearly and helps clients choose what to try first.
Anthony has experience supporting people with attachment concerns, autism and Asperger Syndrome, body image and dissociation. He also works with problems like communication difficulties, control issues, infidelity, domestic violence and substance misuse.
His registration is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are provided from the United Kingdom and are carried out in English. To begin, people use the site Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.
How Anthony uses therapy approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client leads the conversation and the counsellor reflects and clarifies. This approach is useful when someone needs to talk through feelings, make sense of identity questions or decide what matters most to them.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change patterns that feed anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviours. This can help with stress, sleeping problems, addiction-related habits and some trauma-related symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anthony will discuss different methods and agree a plan with each person based on their needs, goals and personal preferences. That planning is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling. It can also make shorter check-ins or phone-based conversations possible when that suits a particular week or goal.
