About Henry
Henry Palmer III (Chip) is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 30 years of experience. He helps people who are dealing with anger, addiction, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and stress. He also supports those facing career changes, issues with self-esteem, and challenges tied to trauma or loss.
Chip focuses on what is happening now and on practical steps forward. Sessions look at the choices that lead to repeated problems and how to try different responses.
Background and approach
He draws on his long recovery experience when helping people move away from substance use and impulsive behavior. His style is direct but respectful. He uses client-centered techniques to listen and understand each person’s priorities.
Motivational approaches help people find the reasons and energy to change, and mindfulness tools are used to manage emotional reactions in the moment. Chip also integrates elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach skills for regulating emotions and handling conflict. Existential perspectives help people make sense of difficult life events and find meaning after loss or major change.
This mix aims to turn insights into usable coping strategies. Sessions may include practical problem solving, skill practice, and short-term focused plans. People looking for help with anger or addictive patterns will find an emphasis on real-life strategies.
His practice is based in North Carolina and sessions are offered in English.

Approaches that translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy is about listening carefully to a person’s goals and tailoring support to what matters most to them. It helps people clarify priorities and plan steps that fit their life. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsive actions, and improving relationships. These skills work well when practiced between sessions and reviewed over video or text. Mindfulness therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without judgment and can help reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.Choosing the right mix of approaches happens together. The therapist will ask about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t worked before. From there he will recommend strategies and adjust methods as needed, so the plan matches each person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls let people use face-to-face work when they can, while phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to send short updates, practice skills between meetings, and keep therapy going during a busy week. These formats give flexibility so people can fit therapy into work, recovery meetings, and family life.
