About Luke
Luke Faiers is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people facing anxiety and stress. He works in straightforward language and aims to make first sessions feel manageable for someone worried about starting therapy. He brings four years of practice in the United Kingdom and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
His work has included supporting people through grief, depression, trauma and issues connected to addiction and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
In sessions he focuses on creating an open space where clients can talk through thoughts and feelings without judgement. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to follow the person’s pace, and uses cognitive behavioural ideas to look at unhelpful thinking patterns when that is helpful for the client.
Luke also uses existential ideas to help people make sense of difficult life changes and questions about meaning. He often combines practical steps and reflective conversation so clients leave with clearer options and small tasks they can try between sessions.
People come to him for a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, self-esteem and problems with control or impulsivity. He aims to work collaboratively and respectfully while helping clients build coping skills and clearer direction for their next steps.
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Client-Centred Therapy is about the counsellor listening closely and following the person’s concerns. It helps when someone needs space to talk and make sense of feelings at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and offers practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luke will discuss different ways of working and decide together which methods fit the client’s goals, needs and preferences. That collaboration guides how sessions are structured and which tools are tried between meetings.
Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video works well for a full conversation with visual cues. Phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or to work through brief issues without using a camera. These options aim to give flexibility so therapy can fit around everyday life.
