Anthony Horsburgh , BACP

Anthony Horsburgh is a UK-based therapist with eight years of professional experience who works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and related challenges. He practices from the belief that each person is the expert on their own life and draws on clients' existing strengths to support change and healing.

Anthony holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and brings a compassionate, respectful approach to therapy. He supports clients through difficult transitions such as grief, parenting and career concerns, as well as issues related to addiction, sleeping problems, and identity matters including LGBT and gender dysphoria. His additional focus areas include attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, control issues, dissociation, domestic violence, and family problems among others.

Beginning therapy can take courage, and Anthony acknowledges the effort involved in taking that first step. He aims to create a collaborative therapeutic relationship that helps clients explore their goals, build resilience, and move toward more satisfying ways of living.

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions and practical benefits

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and supports clients in exploring their own goals. This approach helps people who need space to understand feelings, build self-awareness, and strengthen confidence in decision making.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical skills to change them. It can be especially useful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and problems that respond well to structured skill practice.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, achievable steps toward the changes a client wants to make, helping to create momentum and clearer goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Anthony works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts sessions as understanding grows so the plan evolves with the client.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing sessions to fit around work, family, and daily commitments. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access support from licensed professionals and therapists despite busy schedules or geographic constraints.
