About me
Hello, I'm Luke, a dedicated psychodynamic counsellor with a wealth of experience assisting individuals navigating various emotional and psychological challenges. My expertise lies in helping those grappling with anxiety, depression, and the subsequent effects on their relationships.
About You
If you find yourself here, your previous ways of coping with anxiety are likely no longer as effective as they once were. You may have tried avoidance or distraction techniques, only to discover your anxiety refuses to budge. This is where counselling can make a difference.
How We Work Together
Since establishing my private practice in 2016, I've provided short-term and open-ended counselling sessions tailored to your needs. Short-term sessions typically involve gaining insight into a specific issue, while open-ended treatment is suited for long-standing and complex concerns.
For those battling anxiety for an extended period, it's not uncommon to uncover deeper underlying issues that must be addressed for change to occur. We'll create a space together where you can explore these in-depth.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
As a psychodynamic therapist, I focus on the movement of the mind with how you relate to yourself and others. We explore unconscious processes likely driving your issues to make these more conscious, enabling you to respond differently.
I treat common mental health concerns like anxiety as symptoms, not causes. Many therapies address only surface-level issues, but for lasting change, it's essential to delve deeper, explore the underlying roots, and work holistically. This comprehensive approach is why I'm passionate about psychodynamic therapy.
