About Henry
Henry Burciaga is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, practicing in California with 40 years of clinical experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and trauma and abuse. He also supports work on addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, and parenting challenges.
Henry draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based methods to address strong emotions and recurring interaction patterns. He often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered work to help people clarify values and take practical steps forward. Sessions focus on naming feelings, noticing patterns, and trying small changes to shift how people relate to themselves and others.
His approach pays attention to life-stage concerns, including aging and geriatric issues, cancer, chronic pain and illness, and caregiving strain. He also addresses communication problems, attachment issues, and struggles with isolation or purpose. Henry offers services in both English and Spanish to reach a wider range of people.
Henry works with people coping with complicated life changes such as divorce, separation, or the fallout from domestic violence. He helps people process guilt, shame, forgiveness, and the emotional impact of chronic conditions. Practical skill building, clearer communication, and emotional awareness are common focuses in his sessions.
To begin, he asks people to consider what matters most to them and what they want to change. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time; prospective clients are asked to use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to get started.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions and attachment patterns to change how people relate to themselves and others. It can help with recurring relationship dynamics, intense feelings, and problems that feel hard to name. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns and manage symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Henry will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps decide whether EFT, ACT, CBT, or client-centered and mindfulness work best for the situation.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also make it simpler to meet in a calmer setting or avoid camera use if that helps someone focus. Ask about available formats when you schedule your first session.
