Luke Stevenson , BACP

Luke Stevenson trained in Movement Psychotherapy (MP) in 2015 and added Transactional Analysis (TA) training in 2023. He also lists BACP among his credentials - BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. Luke's approach acknowledges that people are embodied beings, so Movement Psychotherapy invites attention to how sensations, posture and movement relate to emotions and identity. This somatically informed perspective supports clients in combining bodily awareness with talk-based reflection to build greater confidence and a stronger sense of wellbeing.

Transactional Analysis offers a complementary lens, helping clients explore how they communicate, react and learned patterns of relating. Working in a TA co-creative model, Luke collaborates with each person to map out areas of difficulty, notice repeated interactions and experiment with new ways of engaging. Treatment plans are shaped with the client's goals in mind, meaning each plan is unique and responsive to individual needs.

Across his work, Luke blends embodied techniques with relational curiosity to support people who want practical change, increased self-understanding and a clearer path toward their personal potential.

Adapting therapeutic approaches for online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the therapist follows the client's lead. It helps people clarify their feelings, build self-acceptance and make choices that align with their values. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness through simple attention practices and can support stress reduction, emotional regulation and coping with persistent worry. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and achievable goals - it is practical and goal-directed, aiming to help clients notice what is already working and build on those small changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself, and Luke approaches this collaboratively. He will discuss options with each person, consider their needs, goals and preferences, and adapt methods so the therapeutic plan fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access licensed professionals from different locations. These formats offer flexibility in pacing and communication style, and they allow clients to engage in ways that feel most comfortable while still working toward meaningful progress with their therapist.
