About Horacio
Horacio La Maga is a counsellor with five years of experience based in the United Kingdom. He helps people who are struggling with relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and other life changes. He also supports people with neurodivergent profiles and those coping with trauma and abuse.
He aims to build an open, non-judgemental space so clients can talk about difficult feelings. Conversations focus on what matters most to the individual.
Background and approach
Sessions move at the client’s pace and priorities guide the work. Horacio uses approaches that centre the client’s experience and explore deeper patterns in relationships and selfhood. He listens for recurring themes such as attachment, abandonment and control issues, and helps people notice how these show up day to day.
Practical coping skills are offered alongside reflective conversation to help with things like sleep, anger and impulse control. He has worked with people facing addiction, parenting stress, intimacy and commitment concerns, and challenges linked to autism and Asperger syndrome. Horacio also supports those dealing with bereavement, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and feelings of isolation or jealousy.
Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled online by completing a short matching questionnaire. He describes taking the first step towards change as courageous and aims to be a steady, supportive presence during that process.

Approaches in online counselling and how they help
Horacio draws on client-centred work that puts the person's experience first. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting the client’s feelings, and helping people feel heard so they can clarify what they want to change.He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and behaviour. This can help uncover where issues like attachment, abandonment or control concerns began and how they affect day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adjust the focus as therapy progresses in a collaborative way.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when face-to-face conversation matters, phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth, chat can suit short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
