I’ve suffered with depression and anxiety for years, and the doctors always suggested counselling but I just wasn’t ready. About 18 months ago I googled counselling in Plymouth and found Horizon.
I spoke to Natasha and I instantly felt comfortable and safe opening up about things a lot quicker then I anticipated.

Seeing Natasha has made a massive improvement in the way I think and see things, I still have quite a way to go to retrain my brain from being so negative to being more positive, also to learn to cope better during times of stress, but I will get there.

Natasha has been amazing, and is always there for me when I need her.

I would highly recommend Horizon to anyone seeking help.

Thanks

Alan is very switched on and gets straight to the point. His knowledge of the human brain is sound. I look forward to starting hypnotherapy with him and carrying on with my counselling.

I highly recommend Horizon for the support given to me over the past few months. It has been amazing!
Natasha especially, has given me the confidence and support in coping with a family bereavement. I feel so much more positive in many aspects of my life.
I have learnt skills and techniques which are helping me with this journey.
Thank you Natasha!

I would like say a huge thank you to Alan and Horizon for helping me overcome a particularly challenging time in my life.

It certainly wasn’t easy finding the courage to attend that initial meeting, however Alan quickly put me at ease with a warm and pleasant disposition, and due to that immediate rapport it was very easy to open up and discuss the things that I believed were holding me back.
Not only can I manage my personal affairs much more affectively, but I can now see all the positive things in my life I didn’t see before and I’m a much happier person because of it.

I highly recommend Horizon Counselling to anyone looking to better understand and manage their issues.

Again, thank you Alan for all that you’ve done in such a short space of time.

“Making an initial consultation to see Alan at Horizon Counselling was, without doubt, one of the best decisions I have ever made. His empathetic, practical, yet no-nonsense approach helped me through a time of crisis I would simply not have coped with otherwise. He really saw me for the individual I was and taught me invaluable tools that have made my life so much better. My life has been completely transformed and I will be forever grateful to him for what he has helped me achieve.”

I absolutely didn’t believe counselling would help me at all. Alan Is very down to earth and seems to just get people. I can’t say I felt better every time I left his office right away but I can honestly say the work we done helped me through the tough times because would easily remember the work we have done and was able to deal with things in a better way.

I would highly recommend Alan to anyone with counselling needs. He helped me and my partner through a very difficult time. His approach was the best we found after seeing other counsellors. If I ever needed counselling in the future he would be my first call.

Professional, understanding service catering to the individual. Horizons has got me through a very difficult period in my life, and was excellent value for money.
I felt listened to, challenged (in a good way), and will go back if I feel I am slipping back into old patterns. It is an investment into yourself! We are worth it! Huge thank you to Alan and the amazing Horizons team. Rita

I had 6 sessions of counselling with Horizon counselling services and Suzie in 2019.
I had ignored symptoms of bereavement too long and it was complicating other parts of my life severely. The location of the office suited me perfectly and the quality of counselling was very good.

The results were obvious very quickly and Suzie was quick to conclude the process when the time was right.

I highly recommend this service and regard it as a good investment for long term wellbeing

Deciding to visit Horizon Counselling Services is definitely one of the best decisions I have ever made. Alan’s holistic approach to therapy was extremely helpful.

He used a combination of hypnotherapy and counselling to help me with insomnia and anxiety.

My life has been completely transformed since accessing this support. I have moved on from a destructive relationship, and I am pursuing my dream career….and I actually sleep! Amazing!

Alan’s approach is warm and friendly. He is a great guy who is passionate about what he does. I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone thinking of exploring counselling.
