Luke Stevenson , BACP

Luke Stevenson qualified in Movement Psychotherapy (MP) in 2015 and later added training in Transactional Analysis (TA) in 2023, building a practice that attends to both embodied experience and relational patterns. He combines a somatically informed approach with therapeutic exploration of how people relate to themselves and others, aiming to help clients regain confidence, sense of wellbeing, and the capacity to pursue their potential.

Movement Psychotherapy is presented as work that engages the body, mind, and identity together rather than focusing solely on thought. In Luke's practice this means paying attention to physical experience as a route to understanding emotion, behaviour, and personal history. Transactional Analysis offers a complementary lens for examining communication styles, repeated reactions, and the early learning that shapes present-day responses. Luke works in a TA co-creative model, partnering with clients to map patterns, ask curious questions about where those patterns began, and develop tailored ways to make changes.

Each treatment plan is shaped around the individual client, with interventions chosen to fit their needs and goals. He also holds BACP accreditation, reflecting professional membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and adherence to recognised standards of practice.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Luke Stevenson often draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to shape online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and meeting the person where they are, helping with self-esteem, life changes, relationship difficulties, and decision making. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and awareness practices that support managing stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Luke collaborates with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time so the work stays relevant and practical. That collaborative stance means treatment plans are personalised rather than one-size-fits-all, and adjustments are made as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those living far from a clinic. Sessions can take place by video call, by phone, through live chat, or via text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that suits them best. Licensed professionals and therapists can effectively deliver the same core approaches through these channels, making consistent therapeutic work possible from a distance.
