Luke House, LCPC

Luke House is a licensed clinician practicing in Maine who brings five years of professional experience to his work with adults facing life stressors. As an LCPC - a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - he focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the complex emotions that accompany grief and loss. His practice also addresses self-esteem and confidence challenges, motivation, and coping with major life changes including divorce and separation and post-traumatic stress.

Luke emphasizes practical, evidence-based techniques tailored to each person, and he pays attention to the ways guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose can affect daily functioning. He cultivates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared freely, and he regards the decision to seek a more fulfilling and happier life as a courageous first step. Luke works collaboratively with clients to set goals and build skills that support meaningful change over time.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Care

Luke uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to help reduce anxiety and improve mood. These approaches explore unhelpful thinking patterns and teach practical skills to manage stress and depressive symptoms in day-to-day life.

He also employs skills-based strategies for coping with grief, loss, and major life transitions, offering tools for processing emotions, rebuilding routine, and finding direction after change. These techniques aim to increase resilience and enhance self-esteem through gradual, achievable steps.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Luke works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods as needed so therapy fits the individual rather than expecting the person to fit the method.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into a busy life and access support from home or another convenient location. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, allow ongoing connection between sessions, and can make consistent progress more manageable for many people.
