About Luke

Luke Totty is a BACP counsellor who helps people make sense of difficult feelings and behaviour. He brings three years of clinical experience and a background that includes co-facilitating addiction support groups while completing four years of formal study. Luke began working with groups and moved into one-to-one clinical work.

He has logged over 3,000 hours of practice supporting people with addiction, stress, anxiety and trauma. He also helps people who are struggling with self-esteem and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

He sees addictive behaviour as often linked to deeper emotional and relational pain. In sessions he helps clients trace how past experiences shape current patterns. That work looks at how relationships with partners, parents and siblings influence coping and behaviour.

Vulnerability and connection are central to his style. He encourages honest reflection and steady exploration rather than quick fixes. Sessions aim to help people build healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

Luke works in straightforward language and focuses on practical steps alongside emotional understanding. He supports clients who want change, whether that means reducing substance use, managing anxiety, repairing relationships or finding a clearer life purpose.

How Luke works online

Luke uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people change patterns and manage strong emotions. One common approach focuses on understanding how past relationships influence present behaviour; this helps when someone struggles with trust, shame or repeating harmful patterns. Another approach concentrates on coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching practical ways to reduce overwhelm and manage cravings or intense urges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what feels helpful and adjust the way they work as progress unfolds.

The practical benefits of remote sessions can include easier fitting of therapy into a busy week and fewer travel demands. Remote work can be useful for shorter check-ins or when it's important to save time between commitments. The original biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the available session types before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often offer flexible arrangements to match people’s everyday schedules.
