Henri Lang
helping you feel better
Hello, I'm Henri, I'm a therapist
My passion is the human ‘psyche’, the collection of experiences, beliefs and personality that makes each person so unique and fascinating.
I used to be a research scientist in health, but it was too much about data and not enough about human beings so I retrained. But I still draw on the latest evidence to inform my practise. Did you know that research shows that a trusting relationship between therapist and client is far more important than the type of therapy being offered? For therapy to work a warm trusting relationship is the foundation stone. I aim to give my clients the warmth, radical acceptance, encouragement and challenge they need to overcome whatever the challenge they are bringing to therapy, whether this is low self esteem, anxiety, relationship breakdown, grief or depression.
I am a person-centred counsellor specialising in building a healthy relationship with yourself (the root cause of anxiety and depression) and healthy relationships with the others (necessary to a 'thrive' life). I use coaching skills to support you to make real changes in your life.
Being person-centred means that I don’t work to a set method, rather I draw on a range of approaches including cognitive/behavioural, 12 steps and Jungian psychology depending on your personality and needs.
I have a diploma in art foundation and an advanced diploma in yoga therapy which allow me to explore with clients how creative expression (drawing, writing, ritual) and the body breathing and movement) can help with healing emotional distress.
My practise
I offer sessions face to face and online from my therapy rooms in central Bristol where there is both good transport and parking.
I am a senior, accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists.
I have a limited number of concession places for therapy at reduced cost.
My practise is trauma-informed, sex positive, kink positive and queer friendly. I have experience of working with disability and life limiting illness.
