SoChoose has developed a discreet, online EAP, delivering advice, information and testing 24/7.</font> </font> </h1>

on homepage. Will this help/harm? It has lots of keywords/phrases. BTW site at www.sochoose.com

I don't think it helps you. By including so many words in your H1 element, you dilute the extra weight given to any included keyphrase you'd be better off focusing on, it seems to me. You're also using the H1 element for a non-structural and non-standard purpose. The text should be in your introductory paragraph, not your H1 element.
