Long lasting change comes from developing a deeper understanding of ourselves. It can be incredibly challenging to focus on our own emotional life and internal experience. I provide a warm, supportive space to explore and process whatever is on your mind. I have extensive experience engaging in psychotherapy with adults facing a wide range of life experiences, from managing depression, to adapting to major life changes, to facing grief after loss of a loved one.

I follow the concept that therapy can heal emotional pain, improve relationships and increase self-understanding. Beginning therapy can often be intimidating, but can make a big difference in your ability to cope with challenges or make sense of what has happened so you can gather the skills to move forward. I am open to addressing unresolved or present barriers in your life, guide and help you make sense out of your own thoughts ideas and conflicts (situational).

Hi, I'm Luke. I work with burned-out professionals, neurodivergent adults, LGBTQIA+ folx, and people navigating anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges — including healthcare workers and educators who spend their days caring for others but rarely turn that care inward. I use a trauma-informed, psychodynamic approach and bring my own lived experience as a queer and neurodivergent person to the work. I'm well-versed in non-monogamy, polyamory, and kink dynamics, and welcome clients who don't fit the mold of traditional therapy. I own and operate Radiant Waves Counseling and am licensed in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Texas.

My background includes extensive work in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, private practice, and outpatient behavioral health settings, where I've had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, including the LGBTQIA+ community and older adults. I believe therapy should be both compassionate and practical. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based treatments to help you better understand your thoughts and emotions while developing effective strategies for lasting change. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and create realistic goals that help you feel more confident, resilient, and connected to the life you want to live. My treatment style is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs.

I have a strong personal connection to nature, which I believe can be a powerful tool for healing. I enjoy spending time outdoors, camping, hiking, surfing, and even farming—which allows me to maintain a sense of balance and peace.
