Background and approach

Dr. Henshaw combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and hypnotherapy to address patterns of thinking, painful memories, and habits tied to substance use. Sessions focus on practical skills, breathing and grounding, looking at unhelpful thoughts, and building healthier routines.

He explains techniques plainly and practices them together with the person in the room. People come to him for help with drug and alcohol addiction, self-harm urges, and distress after abuse or other trauma. He also supports work on forgiveness, building self-love, and easing depressive symptoms.

His background includes a doctoral degree in Human Development and Counseling from Boston University. Dr. Henshaw is a licensed mental health counselor - LMHC - in Florida.

He offers sessions in English and works with clients both locally and internationally through online formats. The first steps are simple: answer a short questionnaire, then schedule sessions that fit the person's needs and routine.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work

Dr. Henshaw commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy when working online. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related problems. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process painful memories and reduce the ways those memories disrupt daily life.

He also uses hypnotherapy as a tool to support habit change and reduce anxiety symptoms by guiding focused relaxation and suggestion work. These approaches are explained plainly and tried collaboratively so the person and therapist decide together which methods fit best for the goals and comfort level of the client.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for teaching skills and practicing grounding exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflections between visits. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives while still working on meaningful change with a licensed professional.
