About Luke

Luke Totty is a counsellor who trained through a four-year programme and now lists BACP. He brings three years of clinical experience to his work and has participated in over 3,000 hours as a therapist. He began by co-facilitating addiction support groups and has continued helping people in clinical and community settings.

He helps people who are struggling with stress and anxiety. He also supports those dealing with addiction, relationship difficulties, trauma and low self-esteem.

Background and approach

Additional focus areas include abandonment, control issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose and men's issues. Luke believes that pain is often created in relationships and that healing happens through relationship too. Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences shape current patterns of behaviour.

He aims to help people see the links between their history and their everyday responses. In practical terms, he encourages vulnerability as a route to more honest connection. Conversations in sessions look at ways to build healthier relationships with partners, parents, siblings and the self.

He works to create a calm space where people can talk through difficult emotions and try new ways of relating. Therapy with him tends to be collaborative and goal-focused. He helps people identify small, manageable steps for change and checks progress as therapy continues.

People often leave with clearer options and a stronger sense of purpose.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Luke lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support

Many of Luke's methods focus on exploring relationships and behaviour patterns. One common approach looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and habits; it helps people spot repeating patterns and try different responses. Another approach emphasises emotional exploration and vulnerability to build stronger connections with others and with the self; this helps with low self-esteem, shame and relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most useful. That collaborative process means goals, pacing and techniques are adapted as progress is made.

Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Video calls let people read facial expressions and body language, while phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or times when writing feels easier than talking. These formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and different communication preferences.
