Henry Eastman, BACP

Henry Eastman offers a calm, down-to-earth space for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or weighed down by anxiety or life changes. He writes in a straightforward way and helps people notice patterns that keep repeating. Sessions aim to reduce stress, clarify priorities and help people feel more like themselves again.

Henry uses an attachment-based, trauma-informed approach. He draws on Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychodynamic ideas and somatic work to help people understand emotional patterns. The emphasis is on approaches that fit the person rather than forcing a single method.

He trained at The Psychosynthesis Trust and at Tavistock Relationships, and has worked in the NHS supporting people with a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties. Henry also combines talking therapy with Craniosacral Therapy and offers life coaching where that is helpful to the client.

People who come to Henry often want help with anxiety, stress, relationships, confidence, career choices or depression. He also works with issues such as attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, autism and neurodiversity, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Sessions aim to build clearer boundaries, steadier emotions and more choice in how to respond to triggers.

Henry has nine years of experience and holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP. He practises in the United Kingdom and conducts work in English.

How therapeutic approaches and online work fit together

Henry describes his practice as attachment-based and trauma-informed, using methods such as Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help people separate and understand different parts of themselves. IFS can be helpful when patterns feel automatic and people want to change how they react to stress or relationship triggers.

He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on values, present-moment awareness and taking small steps toward a meaningful life. ACT is often useful for managing anxiety, making career decisions and improving emotional steadiness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Henry aims to work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences rather than applying one fixed model. This means plans can change as the work develops and new priorities emerge.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer sessions where they can be off-camera or use audio only, while others opt for fuller video conversations; Henry will discuss what suits each person practically and clinically.
