About Anthony
Anthony Horsburgh is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and related concerns. He supports clients across a wide range of issues, including depression, addictions, grief, sleep problems, and career or parenting strain.
Anthony adopts a person-centred way of working that treats the client as the expert in their own life. He combines that approach with practical methods from cognitive behavioural therapy and solution-focused work. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical steps and making sense of what has happened.
People meet Anthony to talk through attachment issues, communication problems, body image, feelings of isolation, and the impact of divorce or separation. He also works with those navigating gender dysphoria, LGBT-related concerns, and the effects of domestic violence or substance use on daily life. His background includes trauma-focused approaches for responding to abuse and dissociation.
His style is straightforward and goal oriented. He listens for strengths and uses them to build manageable plans. The emphasis is on skills, small changes and relief from overwhelming thoughts and feelings.

How Anthony uses different approaches in remote work
Anthony combines client-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy to address what is happening now and how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's perspective, helping to build trust and clarify what matters to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, lift mood and improve sleep.He also draws on solution-focused techniques to identify immediate, achievable goals and small steps that can be tried between sessions. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Anthony works collaboratively to agree what feels most useful based on the client's needs, goals and preferences, and he adjusts methods as progress is reviewed.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not specify formats. When arranged, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in during a work or study break. Different approaches can be used in shorter or longer sessions depending on what a client needs and what is agreed at the first meeting.
