About Henry

Henry Burciaga is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 40 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and self esteem concerns. He offers straightforward support for relationship struggles, grief, trauma, and addiction. Henry works with individuals who want clearer communication, stronger boundaries, or help coping with life changes.

He draws on a mix of practical methods to help people make small, steady changes. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on skills that can be used between meetings. Henry pays attention to culture and life stage, and he tailors his work to each person’s goals and pace.

Henry uses approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. He blends these to address emotional pain, relational patterns, and unhelpful thinking. The goal is to build resilience and clearer direction rather than quick fixes.

He has a long history practicing in California and brings experience with aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness and pain, ADHD, attachment issues, and caregiving fatigue. Henry also supports people facing career shifts, parenting stresses, and life purpose questions.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and he is open to working with international clients. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session options and formats to match their needs.

How Henry’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them, and then take steps toward what matters. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and struggles with meaning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches straightforward skills to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so clients feel heard and can explore their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Henry works collaboratively to see which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. He combines techniques as needed and checks in to adjust the plan based on progress and feedback.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling, fewer travel demands, and the ability to fit sessions into a busy life. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, readers should confirm current options before booking. Online work can be a good way to continue steady progress when life circumstances make in-person meetings harder. Licensed professionals often use a range of approaches online to help clients learn skills, process feelings, and work toward clearer goals.
