Dana Henry, LPC

Do you find yourself struggling with:

  • Maybe you spent your childhood pleasing your parents so you could feel safe, and you may now find that your relationships as an adult revolve around trying to get difficult people to treat you well and be good to you.

  • Noticing that you are dating or friends with the same types of people, and those relationships are often harmful to you? Losing yourself in relationships and taking all of the blame and responsibility if something goes wrong. Months and years go by, and the same frustrating loops and patterns repeat themselves over and over in many of your relationships.

  • Difficulty sleeping despite feeling exhausted? It’s almost impossible to relax when you feel tense most of the time.

  • Your thoughts spiral out of control. You obsess about situations and relationships, usually blaming yourself for the behavior of others, and thinking that if you try hard enough you can fix that person and save your relationship. 

  • You’re angry, irritable, and lashing out at people you care about.

  • Maybe a conversation, a sound, sight, or smell triggers a memory and you try to avoid situations that may lead to having that panicky frozen feeling.

  • Are you pushing your feelings away or numbing out with food/social media/relationships/alcohol/drugs/sex?  You rarely share those deep feelings with others - it's too scary to be vulnerable.

  • Did you have a traumatic birth experience or post-birth complications, and are struggling to maintain your sanity?  Pretending that everything is ok, but inside, you are crumbling and barely hanging on? Afraid to get pregnant again?

We will work together to heal these places of wounding and pain. Take the first step on the pathway to healing and wholeness with a free 30-minute consultation.

When individuals first come to therapy, they are often struggling with any number of things: the impact of past trauma on the present, symptoms of depression or anxiety, unhealthy relationship patterns, loneliness, negative and toxic mindsets—the list goes on. Life is messy and complex, and so are the experiences we carry with us.

My Approach

I bring over 20 years of clinical experiece to each session. Compassionately, and with the understanding that everyone is unique, I partner with my clients to discover pathways of healing and wholeness in their minds and hearts and bodies. I specialize in healing past traumas and wounds. I am trained and certified in EMDR, Flash, Inner Healing Prayer and emotional/physical regulation skills.

If you’re ready to begin your journey of healing, we will work together to heal those memories, trauma, pain and fear from your past, creating new spaces of safety and peace within your body. Learning about your own unique needs—and how to meet those needs in healthy ways—can lead to freedom to truly live, grow, and love!

I counsel from a Christian perspective;
however, my clients do choose whether or not they want to have Christian counseling.

  • Yes, and yes! I have both in person and TeleHealth availability. I am also able to meet you at your home or a place that is convenient for you. Walking and talking counseling is sometimes very effective as well.

  • Sessions are 55 minutes.

    There is also an 80-minute option, and I offer intensives, which are longer sessions and can be as long as a few hours or a few days.

    Some clients find that one hour several times a month just isn’t enough, and they’d like to focus on and get through their healing work quickly. Intensives are an amazing way of accomplishing your healing in a shorter amount of time.

  • I focus on individuals, both men and women, ranging from age 21-99. 

    If you're looking for couples counseling, I'm happy to refer you to some excellent counselors.

  • I am not credentialed with health insurance companies.

    However, by paying direct, we're not bound to insurance requirements, allowing us to work together in the ways that are most beneficial to you – longer sessions, walk-and-talk sessions, in-home visits, and intensives.  Your privacy is important, and with direct pay, I am not obligated to share my session notes or diagnosis with any outside entity. 

    Please check with your health insurance company to see if your out-of-network benefits might help to cover some or all costs of your sessions.

    I will provide monthly "superbills" upon request, which you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network benefits.

    I offer Pay-What-You-Can-Fridays! I have a limited amount of biweekly appointment times available to our local communities - please contact me for more information.

  • Pay-What-You-Can-Fridays! If you are experiencing financial hardships and need counseling, I have a limited amount of biweekly 40 minute appointment times available to our local communities. Please contact me to set up an appointment. I will accept what you offer.
