More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 26 State: Michigan

Hello, my name is Gwendolyn Henry (you can call me Gwen). I am a Licensed Therapist and Life Coach with over 26 years of experience. I have worked with victims of sexual abuse, adults suffering with Depression, Anxieties and Grief in many forms. The last 10 years of my career I worked with Veterans who were traumatized from military involvement.

My style of treatments that have proven successful over the years are: active listening, sensitivity to your concerns/trauma, and encouragement, with a non-judgmental approach to your life situations. Establishing a trusting relationship is extremely important in this journey; it is a key to healing, learning, and prosperity. Together we create a treatment plan and together it is adjusted and reevaluated for your success. We travel this path together.

My Specialties are:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing)

Internal Family Systems

Grief Therapy

Anxiety Disorder (utilizing breath work)

Depressive Disorder

Guided Meditation

Art Therapy

I am so glad you have decided to take this next step to achieve a happier/self-directed life. Together we will achieve goals that are established for a new beginning. I count it an honored to work with you. Thank you for the opportunity.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Gwen has helped me in so many ways I never thought possible through therapy. She focuses on my strengths and believes in me!

She is a really good therapist. I strongly recommend her.

I love the relationship I built with Gwen. She is understanding and her demeanor is very soothing. In every session, I learn more skills to deal with situations that I have no control over. I am growing every day as a professional and as a person.

I have seen a lot of counselors in my lifetime. Gwen has been by far, the most helpful.

Gwen has been great! She's very supportive on the needs that I need throughout our conversations and she's always making sure I think of myself and tells me how much I'm worth as well. She's Awesome!!

Gwen is a great friend and therapist. She is very attentive, respectful, knowledgeable, and caring. I have felt at ease since my first session and she is very supportive with compassion and encouragement. I can't speak highly enough of Gwendolyn Henry and the format of the Better Help program.

I've only had one session with Gwen but she was so easy to talk to. I look forward to working with her!

Amazing experience

Gwen is amazing! I wish I took before and after pictures, because I don't only feel like a new person, I look like a new person! All thanks to Gwen!

Gwen was great to work with! Great attitude, great listener. I could always tell that she was engaged and gave me great advice.

Very helpful and knows where to find you help

The absolute best therapist I’ve ever had and I had a long-term therapist prior to Gwen for 10 years. Gwen is extremely compassionate, she is never condescending nor does she ever display any form of judgment. Not only does she actively listen, she’s able to help coach me through important decisions and behaviors. I’m so thankful to have found Gwen and to have her on my team!

Gwen is simply amazing. She not only is helping me heal, she is helping me transform into a version of me that I never knew existed. My life has changed so much inside and out since I started working with her. I don't even recognize myself anymore, I LOVE this new version of me! Thank is just not enough.

Gwen has helped me tremendously. i haven’t had therapy in a year, but i often think of everything that Gwen has taught me. she is very patient, professional and kindhearted.

Qwen is great! She listens well and leads me where I want to go. She is kind and loving and has a great laugh. She is well skilled in her craft and is helping me so much!

I felt myself click with Gwendolyn right off the bat. I am someone who hates to cry, yet I was sobbing, within just a few moments of meeting with her. She never made me feel anything except, “worthy,” of having the feelings I needed to have at that very moment. She is so warm, so caring and overall she is such a genuine human being. I feel like I cannot wait for my appointments each week, because I adore feeling heard, and validated. I also know, that with her, I have someone who will be honest with me as well. She is the best, and I would recommend her any day, to anyone!

Gwen is extremely compassionate and understanding. She is eager to help and I am looking forward to working with her more.

Gwendolyn is a very intuitive and caring counselor. She is very good at getting to the root issues very quickly.

Gwen has been very supportive with my process. She has helped me develop not only personally but professionally. She is awesome. She cares about me and have a holistic approach that make her unique in the field.

Gwen is a true God send. I feel that she hears what I am saying, unlike other styles of therapy I’ve had. She is teaching me tools so that I can better understand and manage my feelings. Each week is a blessing. M

Ms Henry has been and continues to be a source of comfort and a voice of reason. She’s able to see what I’m not saying and draw me out so I can deal with whatever issue is going on. I’ve really appreciated her assistance, advice, and guidance as I’ve gone through various life changes.

Gwen has been a wonderful support in my life, she has helped me learn new and exciting emotional management skills and I look forward to working more with her!

Gwen is a top notch therapist. She is thoughtful, compassionate , knowledgeable and completely trustworthy…. She was a perfect match.

Gwen is a skilled therapist and she’s truly wonderful to work with!

I have worked with Miss Gwen for almost 5 months now. She has helped me through a lot. She is honest, a very good listener, very respectful, and very understanding. She works at my pace and doesn't pressure me to do things. I've learned things that actually help me. I love working with her and will continue to. :)

Gwen is a very good and nice therapist. Even though I had to stop therapy due to my summer job schedule, she had helped me a lot and made me feel special and happy inside. She listened and gave me good advice. Thank you for being a really good therapist Gwen!

Gwen is an incredible therapist. Her gentle and loving approach was exactly what I needed to help me get through the loss of my dad. She is kind, genuine, and truly cares about her clients. Her calm presence makes you feel comfortable right away. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Ms. Henry is amazing. She has help me align myself with my purpose. Her respect among us is exceptional.

Gwen is amazing, caring and insightful. I got more out of my first session with Gwen than in a month at therapist office. I totally trust Gwen and highly recommend her.

Ms Henry has been such a blessing in my life and we’ve only had a handful of sessions! Her experience, expertise and faith have been a great match for me. She is able to fill in the blanks and help me have the clarity I need to have the confidence in certain decisions. I appreciate her and respect her immensely.

Gwen is a knowledgeable, experienced, and wonderful therapist to work with!

I really feel like I am being heard in my conversations with Gwen. I like the thoughtful advice she gives, and the homework she assigns so I can work on what we discussed throughout the week. When is kind, compassionate, and wise.

Gwen is amazing! She listens to me and guides in the right direction every time! She has the best personality and is easy to talk to. She's encouraging and gives me hope that I'm going to be just fine as I go on this journey.

She genuinely cares about me & my health. I'm very grateful for her & her help. I couldn't ask for anyone better. SHE IS AWESOME!!!!!

Gwendolyn Henry is a very humble and understanding woman. I am glad to be able to work with her. definitely helped out with my anxiety and depression. definitely feel like i’ve taken a huge step forward towards improving my mental health. so thank you Gwendolyn for everything.

Gwendolyn has been of great help since our first session. She is beautiful, kind and understanding. I’m so glad that I have found her in my time of need. ♥️

Gwendolyn is amazing. She has the skills I was looking for in a therapist. She can be trusted. She and I have lot of things in common and that inspires me confidence.

She is helpful, supportive and listens. She give great ideas. I love her!

Good therapist and listens well to the client.

When I decided that I needed to focus on my mental health, I knew that I needed a therapist with a lot of experience considering all of the issues that I needed to unpack. Along with someone who understands my spiritual needs. Gwendolyn pushes me to do the work, while listening attentively during our sessions. I am able to focus on moving forward with skills and positive coping mechanisms while addressing areas of my life where I need to “confront” certain circumstances, with the ability to move forward. Mental health is important to me and the purpose that I am to walk in accordingly, while accepting my own accountability. I believe less than 5% of this earthly population is able to recognize this. And for that I appreciate my sessions with Gwendolyn, and as a Black woman, I don’t feel stigmatized at all that I choose to love myself and evolve!!!
