Awards & Other
In February 2021, Dr. Henry was given an award in honour for his response to serve his community, where he treated many individuals of depression and suicide ideation due to both the pandemic and financial difficulties, all whom he saw free of charge. Dr. Henry has noticed that the number of people without access to proper mental healthcare and mental health treatment is way too large, and his mission is to reduce that number, even if it’s seeing just a handful of people at the same time.
Dr. Henry is currently starting his YouTube channel, called "Wellness TechTalk" to provide free tips to frequently encountered questions. Something special about Dr. Henry, other than being trilingual, is his passion for helping others. Dr. Henry works as a counsellor because he has a genuine passion for helping. The best feeling, as Dr. Henry describes, is "looking at the individual or family before and after the sessions, and smiling because I know I made a difference in their lives".
