About Luke
Luke Faiers is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with adults on a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addiction and anger. Sessions are conducted in English and focus on practical ways to manage difficult feelings and everyday pressures.
Luke uses straightforward conversation to help people talk through what is happening in their lives. He aims to build a working relationship that lets clients describe problems and test different ways of coping. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep the work focused on a client's priorities, and on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going.
He also uses ideas from Existential Therapy to help people consider meaning and choices when life feels uncertain or stuck. That can be useful for issues like career decisions, feelings of emptiness, or big life transitions. Practical tools and short experiments between sessions are often used to check what helps in day-to-day life.
Luke can support people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, body image and issues linked to addiction or substance use. He also works with people facing burnout, compassion fatigue, and the frustrations that come from repeated conflict or anger.

How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on what the client wants to address and creates room for their priorities to shape each session. That approach is about listening, reflecting and helping someone clarify their concerns, whether that is ongoing anger, grief or stress.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online sessions can include practical exercises, thought records and short behaviour experiments to try between meetings, which are useful for managing anger and anxiety.
Existential Therapy helps people consider values, choice and meaning when life feels difficult. It can be used in online conversations to examine what matters most and how to make clearer choices in everyday life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adapt the focus as needs change. That conversation happens openly in early sessions and is reviewed over time.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. Practical benefits include testing techniques at home and using brief between-session tasks to build new habits.
