Dr. Robert Bruce Henry, licensed in IllinoisDr. Robert Henry is a Clinical Psychologist with 26 years of experience working with the most difficult issues of life. He and his clients share a decidedly personal and interactive relationship, which takes the approach that the emotions and the perceptions, which motivate and shape personal behavior, are the main barriers to the desired path through life. These barriers can stop people from accomplishing the fulfillment of their needs, desires, dreams, goals, etc. by creating problems in feeling, thinking or acting. Once clarified, the emphasis becomes how to utilize the emotional needs and motivations in a more positive direction. His key belief is that increased awareness leads to increased choices. His therapeutic interactions encompass warm and supportive, yet challenging, interventions at both the level of personal patterns of living and the distressing emotions. The common life issues that he addresses are depression, including prolonged sadness or grief; anxiety, panic, anger management, self-control of impulsive behavior, including adolescents behavior; trauma survivors, relationships and intimacy, major life changes, including Midlife crisis, loneliness and isolation, and adult Attention Deficit Disorders. His key belief is that increased awareness leads to increased choices. My clients and I share a decidedly personal and interactive relationship.
Two key elements in personal change and development are the emotional and behavioral components of the individual. My initial focus is on the emotions and perceptions that motivate and shape personal behavior. Once clarified, the emphasis becomes how to utilize the emotional needs and motivations in a more positive direction. My clients and I share a decidedly personal and interactive relationship, which takes the approach that emotions and perceptions are the main barriers to the desired life path. My emphasis upon entering the problem at the emotional level is an unusual approach that is both effective and productive. Dr. Robert Henry is a caring and engaging person, who specializes in the creation of an accepting, while challenging, approach to change. His interactive form of therapy is based on the assumption that personal needs, abilities, and potentials are blocked by psychological barriers. lie is intensely interested in exploring and developing a positive personal framework within which the individual can make the change of a lifetime. Dr. Henry works to aid the client's removal of the barriers, helping the person to have the freedom to control their lives. | |||||||
