About Henry

Built from the inside out.

I’ve spent most of my life trying to understand people — what makes them tick, what gets in their way, and what it looks like when someone finally stops performing and starts actually living. That curiosity is the thread running through everything I do.

Over the last decade, I’ve worked in leadership and people development across industries — helping individuals, teams, and organizations figure out how to grow with intention. That work spans the full arc: emerging professionals just finding their footing, executives navigating high-stakes pivots, and everyone in between. What my clients share isn’t a demographic — it’s a desire to know themselves better and build a life from that place.

I bring both a coaching lens and a clinical one to this work — which means I can go deep when the moment calls for it, and stay practical and forward-focused when that’s what you need. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. I believe in showing up to the actual person in front of me.

Outside of the work, I’m a husband to Paige and a new dad — which has only deepened my conviction that the relationships we build and the values we live by are the whole thing. That’s not background noise. It’s the point.

The name Carrington is a nod to Manchester United’s training ground — a place built for growth, grit, and becoming. That’s the kind of space I try to create in every room I’m in.

Coaching vs. Counseling

Both are powerful. They’re not the same thing. Here’s how to know which one is right for where you are right now.

Coaching
Forward-focused. Goal-oriented. Performance-driven.

Coaching is for people who are fundamentally okay — but want more clarity, direction, or traction. It’s action-oriented work that lives in the present and future.

  • You know something needs to change, but you’re not sure what
  • You’re in a career or identity transition
  • You want to clarify your values and perform from them
  • You’re a current or former athlete figuring out what’s next
  • You want accountability and a thinking partner
  • You’re building something and need a structured sounding board
Counseling / Therapy
Healing-focused. Clinically grounded. Going deeper.

Therapy is for people who are experiencing distress — and want to understand and work through it with professional clinical support.

  • You’re experiencing anxiety, depression, or persistent emotional pain
  • Relationship patterns keep showing up in ways that hurt
  • A past experience still has a hold on you
  • You want to understand yourself at a deeper level
  • You’re navigating grief, loss, or identity rupture
  • You want clinical mental health support, not just strategies

I’m starting a role in solar sales tomorrow, and I’ve been thinking a lot about what we spoke about, especially around building a life that stays balanced, even in a new and demanding season. Just wanted to say thanks again.

★★★★★ Google Review

I had a great experience working with Henry at Carrington Coaching & Counseling. Ironically, I was looking for someone to talk to regarding BOTH Coaching and Counseling. I came in dealing with a lot of self-doubt and uncertainty around my career path, and Henry did an incredible job helping me work through it in a way that felt both structured and genuinely personal. He is THE best at asking the right questions, and challenged my thinking without forcing it. I gained a lot more confidence in both my decision-making and the direction I want to take professionally. If you’re feeling stuck, unsure, or just need someone to help you cut through the noise and get clarity, I can’t recommend Henry enough.
