Latest out: In 2021 Henrik and the journalist Jörg Böckem updated their harm-reduction and drug education book “High sein – ein Aufklärungsbuch”. This is the platform on which a critical dialogue on psychoactive substances between generations can succeed. “High sein” builds on health research and field experience that Henrik has gathered for more than 25 years now. His special perspective integrates views from public health, medicine, psychotherapy, and developmental psychology. By the way: the chapter on “Down sein” (being down) is as long and as important as the chapter on “High sein” (being high). With “High sein – in Aufklärungsbuch” Henrik has begun to write for the general public – the book is a platform for a dialogue about the risks and benefits of psychoactive substances.

Research

Henrik enjoys building theory, using mixed-methods, and playing with alternative perspectives. He has been involved in research fields as different as clinical research in psychotherapy, medical psychology, prevention, anthropology, and philosophy. Lately, he focussed his research interests on psychedelic states and their integrative uses in therapy and self-development. Henrik has published across a spectrum of scientific journals and edited more than a dozen scientific books.
Henrik’s interests and research have focussed on a lifetime developmental perspective in the last years. Currently, he is also engaged as qualitative researcher in the context of the first German, government-funded psilocybin depression study, EPIsoDE. There his focus is on effective factors and patient experience in augmented psychotherapy – a form of psychotherapy that is intensified or enhanced by the methods like virtual reality or the use of psychedelic substances.
