Peter Henry

Peter Henry is an AHPRA-credentialed counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, eating issues and depression. He approaches each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. He frames change as a step-by-step process and aims to make the first steps feel manageable.

Peter uses a conversational, respectful style and listens for what matters most to the client. He emphasises practical strategies alongside reflective conversation. Sessions often focus on improving day-to-day functioning and easing symptoms that get in the way of routine life.

Men's health and issues around communication and life purpose are particular interests. Peter supports people who want to work on interpersonal skills, clarify values, and find ways to feel more engaged in their relationships and roles. He also attends to concerns such as guilt, shame, emptiness and multicultural stressors.

His therapeutic toolkit includes client-centred ways of working, cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment approaches, attachment-focused thinking and skills from dialectical behaviour approaches. He adapts these methods to what a person prefers and needs rather than assuming a single path.

Peter has six years of professional experience in Australia. He offers evening and Saturday morning sessions to fit around busy schedules and uses a subscription model for bookings that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time.
