Luke Severt, LPC

Luke Severt is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Wisconsin with five years of clinical experience. He helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, grief, bipolar disorder, depression, and major life changes.

He meets each person with straightforward, practical work. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, then testing different ways of responding. He uses clear techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and related approaches to map problems and try new behaviors.

In-session, he aims to keep things concrete. People can expect short experiments, simple skill practice, and direct discussion about what’s getting in the way. He pays attention to how emotions, thoughts, and actions interact and helps people build small, usable skills for day-to-day life.

Luke also brings methods from client-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when they fit the work. He has experience addressing post-traumatic stress, dissociation, first responder issues, self-harm concerns, and navigating young adult transitions. He frames these as problems to be understood and managed with concrete strategies.

For practical steps he asks people to try things between sessions and then reviews what worked. If someone wants to explore EMDR or emotionally focused interventions, he can discuss how those approaches might be used and what to expect. He works in English and practices in Wisconsin as an LPC.
