About Luke
Luke Kayne is a counsellor who aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable. He is based in the United Kingdom and works with people facing depression, anxiety, grief and family tensions. He presents as down-to-earth and respectful, and explains things in a straightforward way so people can focus on what matters to them.
He has three years of experience and works from an integrative perspective, tailoring conversations and plans to each person’s story.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around practical goals and the things a client brings, such as parenting strain, career worries, or problems with self-esteem and anger. Luke describes his approach as sensitive and compassionate. He aims to create a calm space for people to talk through loss, trauma, addiction concerns, relationship stress or questions about identity.
He also supports people dealing with issues like body image, isolation, money worries and coping with life changes. In practice he helps people notice patterns, try small changes and build clearer coping strategies. He will work with clients on communication problems, attachment and abandonment concerns, and recovery after separation or bereavement.
The focus is on practical steps rather than technical language. Sessions are available online in English, and international clients are accepted. Luke encourages people to recognise the courage in starting therapy and to take steps at a pace that feels right for them.

Online support
Another element is grief and trauma-focused support that helps people make sense of loss and process difficult memories at a manageable pace. This approach involves talking through feelings, pacing the work, and developing coping strategies to move forward after bereavement or distressing events.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. He will work with clients to decide what methods suit their goals, preferences and life circumstances, checking in and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, which make therapy more flexible. Video mirrors a face-to-face session, phone calls use less bandwidth, live chat can fit short check-ins and messaging allows ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help people fit therapy around work, family life and travel, and make it easier to keep continuity of care when circumstances change.
