Henry Joling serves as the lead primary one-on-one addiction counselor at Tree House Recovery in California, bringing a welcoming presence and clinically grounded approach to every aspect of his role.
Henry’s work is divided into two core responsibilities: delivering addiction education and conducting individual counseling sessions.
His educational group sessions function as a foundation in the psychology of addiction. These sessions aren’t theoretical—they’re practical tools designed to give clients the best possible chance at long-term sobriety.
In one-on-one counseling, Joling applies a trauma-informed, evidence-driven approach to walk clients through uncovering the root causes of their addiction. With a rare blend of clinical precision and personal authenticity, Joling empowers clients to do the hard work required for lasting change.
This balance of care, challenge, and honest communication is central to Joling’s work. He tailors his counseling to meet each individual where they are while encouraging them to step into who they’re capable of becoming.
Joling’s approach to counseling is grounded in the belief that true fulfillment comes from living with integrity. He’s seen firsthand that money, status, or material possessions don’t equate to happiness. For him, healing and self-worth begin with how a person chooses to live and treat others.
“I’ve met a lot of guys with money, cars, status—everything we associate with success in America—and they’re miserable,” says Joling. “And I’ve also seen men with almost nothing, just out of prison, wearing donated clothes, who are genuinely happy because they’re living a spiritually pure life,’ shares Henry.
Joling believes in helping clients reconnect with core values like honesty and kindness. His goal is to help clients live in alignment with who they truly are, not who they think they’re supposed to be.
At Tree House Recovery in California, Henry has witnessed the transformation of men gaining confidence and personal power for the first time in their lives. That kind of growth, he believes, is only possible in an addiction treatment program that focuses not just on getting clean—but on building a new way of life.
“I wouldn’t want to work for a different treatment center,” he explains. “The philosophy here is strong. It works. It’s a lifestyle—and it provides a real community that helps you do the deal for the rest of your life.”
Joling believes that Tree House Recovery represents what substance abuse treatment should be: effective and empowering.
When he’s not working with clients at Tree House Recovery, Henry prioritizes physical wellness, nature, and connection. Fitness plays a major role in his daily life—not just for health, but as a form of personal grounding. Henry also values time with friends and loved ones and considers maintaining those social connections an essential part of his well-being.
This balance of movement, nature, and connection isn’t just how Joling lives—it’s what he brings to Tree House Recovery every day: a human approach to healing that starts from the inside out.
