Tyler Henry is an award-winning medium with more than 300,000 people on his waiting list. He has been Hollywood’s go-to medium for years having appeared on several TV shows.

The reality show personality has appeared on the series Hollywood’s Medium as a clairvoyant medium. This series first began in January 2016 on the E! Television network.

His TV show on E! was, at the time E!'s largest launch of a non-spinoff unscripted series in the past three years with 3.2 million viewers for its third episode.

Henry has no doubt experienced critics in his life with some arguing that Henry's readings are performed using deceptive cold reading and hot reading techniques, and not "psychic" powers. British-American John Oliver is most notably one of Henry’s critics as he has actively attempted to counter the public perception that what Henry does reflects reality.

The new Netflix series Life After Death will see Tyler Henry take a more inward look at his life and family history.

Season 1 of Tyler Henry’s Life after Death will be an intimate watch as the clairvoyant medium offers clarity and closure
