About Luke

Luke Faiers is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting concerns and several related difficulties. Luke uses clear, practical methods to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and try different responses.

He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and to test new ways of thinking and acting. He also uses client-centred techniques that focus on listening and reflecting what a person is saying. Existential ideas are used to help people consider meaning, choice and responsibility when life feels confusing or empty.

Sessions are conversational and structured. Luke helps clients set small, manageable goals and reviews progress in straightforward ways. Practical exercises and between-session tasks are often suggested so people can practise new responses in everyday life.

His background includes work with issues such as addiction, relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, body image and self-esteem concerns, anger and impulse control, and coping with life changes like separation or career shifts. He also lists areas like ADHD, compassion fatigue and loneliness among his focus areas.

Luke offers support in English and works with people located in the United Kingdom. To start, clients follow an online matching process and book an initial session to agree aims and a workable plan.

How CBT and client-centred work translate to online sessions

Online sessions with Luke would draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centred approaches. CBT here is described as a practical method for identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative behaviours, which can help with anxiety, sleeping problems, low mood and stress. Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting so a person can clarify their thoughts and priorities. Existential ideas may also be used to look at meaning and life choices when someone feels stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luke will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, and then adapt sessions together. This is a collaborative process that may combine structured CBT tasks with open discussion about values and choices.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make sessions easier to fit into daily life, for example by removing commute time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or letting people choose whether to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical options to help people keep therapy consistent with their routines.
