About Luke
LPC Luke Severt is a licensed professional counselor in Wisconsin with five years of clinical experience. He helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, and major life changes. Luke uses familiar, practical methods so conversations stay focused and clear.
He draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thinking patterns and DBT skills for emotion regulation. EMDR and emotionally-focused ideas are in his toolkit when trauma or relationship feelings are central.
Sessions are straightforward. Luke aims to make it easier to name difficult feelings and build small, useful skills to manage them. He works step-by-step on problems like panic, recurring anger, low motivation, or coping after a loss.
He also pays attention to job-related strain such as compassion fatigue and first responder issues. For people dealing with dissociation, post-traumatic stress, self-harm urges, or disruptive mood dysregulation concerns, he uses approaches matched to those specific struggles.
Luke asks questions, listens to what matters, and adjusts methods based on how someone responds. He guides practical changes and short exercises people can try between sessions. The focus is on making everyday life more manageable and helping clients move toward clearer goals.

How Luke uses evidence-based approaches in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. The therapist reflects concerns, clarifies goals, and helps clients choose next steps. This approach helps when people need a non-directive space to sort out priorities and feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. A therapist helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and tests small behavioral changes. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It includes practical skills people can use day to day to manage intense emotions and reduce impulsive actions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luke will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. He will adjust techniques over time based on what is helpful and what is not.
