About Luke

Luke Faiers is a counsellor who works from a client-centred stance. He uses a calm, direct style to help people talk about what is keeping them awake, worried or overwhelmed. He aims to make the first step feel manageable and to build a collaborative working relationship from the start.

He has four years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Luke commonly supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, grief and trauma. He also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, self-esteem and career stresses.

Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of him. He listens closely and helps people notice patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Luke uses practical tools from cognitive behavioural ideas alongside deeper client-centred conversations about meaning and values.

People can expect short, clear conversations about goals and small steps to try between sessions. He works at a steady pace and checks in about what is useful. This can include making changes to sleep routines, testing coping strategies or tackling unhelpful thinking patterns.

Luke invites people to be honest about what they need from counselling. He asks simple questions to help identify priorities and then negotiates a plan together. The focus is on steady progress rather than fast fixes.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Luke draws on client-centred practice and cognitive behavioural ideas to shape online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and working at the client’s own pace; it helps people feel heard and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers practical strategies for dealing with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Luke will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses, with regular check-ins about what is helpful.

The main practical benefit of online counselling is fitting sessions into everyday life. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments around work, childcare or travel, reduce time spent commuting and allow brief check-ins when needed. Confirm the specific session options before booking, since the biography does not list formats explicitly. In sessions people can expect clear goal-setting, homework tasks such as sleep or routine changes, and a focus on strategies that translate into daily life.
