Horizon Counselling Services - Plymouth

Mike Irons

I chose Alan Stokes as my therapist after seeing another review recommending him and my god was it the best decision i could have made. I went to Horizon stricken with quite severe anxiety and after only 5-6 sessions, and the willingness to work on myself after each session, I genuinely feel like a different person. I've had comments on how much better I've been and I really didn't think I'd get better, especially not so quickly.

Alan is incredibly friendly and easy going and I felt like I could relax each time I saw him. I had a few genuine laughs during my time with him and without him I really don't think I would have had the motivation to fix my mental health.

Can't recommend Horizon, and especially Alan, enough.

I used Horizon for just over 6 months weekly with Claire and was overwhelmed with the support she gave me. She always made me feel comfortable and safe and worked with me through a really down point in my life. To be where I am now is a testament to the quality of support I received. Would highly recommend

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

I can't thank Alan Stokes enough for all the help he has given me. The change and improvement I see and feel with in myself is absolutely incredible and going to see Alan for help and advice is definitely one of the best decisions I have ever done. If you need help, Alan and Horizon is the place to go to.

I needed support in understanding the anxieties and concerns that surround my insomnia which originated from a work related stress episode some years ago. I engaged with Claire Evans at Horizon whom I found incredibly helpful and sympathetic. Working with here we uncovered many issues concerning my anxieties that may relate back to the original episode. To that extent I remain a 'work in progress' but I would have no hesitation in recommending Claire and Horizon to anyone requiring help.

I would highly reccomend counselling with horizon. Being able to talk openly and honestly in a safe space has been really, really great for my mental health. Alan is very knowledgeable and kind. Being able to talk about anything, from small things to huge concerns has enabled me to process and get past traumatic experiences.

Thank you Andy Whalley for being so kind and helpful 🙂 you gave a lot of perspective and non-judgmental ideas to help manage my anxieties. Although nothing is “solved”, I have tools, mantras and a more open mind thanks to Andy’s help. My anxieties have reduced and I no longer have as much chest pain and breathing difficulties.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Horizon, going to speak to someone on a one to one basis and transformed my way of thinking for the better and led me to living a happier and positive life all round. If you are considering this currently or have thought about it in the past then I can't recommend going to speak to someone enough, it is the stepping stone to a better version of yourself which is ultimately what everyone wants.

Thanks again for everyone at Horizon! 😀
