About Luke

Luke Chaddick is a licensed clinical social worker in Louisiana. He uses a respectful, sensitive approach and focuses on creating a space where people can start honest conversations about stress, anxiety, loss, and change. He recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and aims to make that first step easier for each person he meets.

With four years of experience, Luke adapts sessions to match each person's needs. He listens first and works with clients to build a plan that feels realistic. That plan can include practical exercises, new ways of thinking about problems, and reflection on values and goals.

Luke often helps people facing grief, depression, addictions, and life transitions. He also supports those dealing with isolation, caregiver strain, panic attacks, and issues related to gender and sexuality. Sessions address both daily coping and longer term patterns that get in the way of feeling well.

In sessions he draws on client-centered methods to follow the client's lead, cognitive behavioral tools to spot and shift unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness practices to calm the mind in tense moments. Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques are used when people want to make a change or reframe painful stories about themselves.

Luke invites straightforward talk and practical steps. He encourages small experiments between sessions and checks in on what helps. If you want a therapist who listens, adapts, and partners with you on stress and anxiety, he can help you explore next steps.

How Luke’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person's pace and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what he hears, and helps people set goals that feel right for them. This approach is helpful when someone needs a caring space to sort out stress and life changes.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Luke uses CBT techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety and panic symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luke will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs and goals. That may mean starting with listening, then adding CBT exercises or mindfulness practices as things progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking.
