Luke is the Founder and Director of The Healing Tide – a socially minded entity that is endeavoring to reconnect us to the power and possibility of love, care and healing through counselling, learning and community connection.

Luke knows what it’s like to feel deep hurt and great love. 

He believes that when trust, courage and openness are in the room, that breakthrough and possibility are always available and that we can always learn and always make the choice to love.

While Luke will always be an educator – having been involved in it for decades, he is now following his passion for human connection and healing and has trained as a counsellor and psychotherapist. He is trained in Person-Centred Therapy and draws upon his skills as a singer songwriter, yoga and meditation teacher to compliment his therapeutic practice as appropriate.

The Healing Tide seeks to be the kind of place where healing expands through community and into the world – where what you came with to be healed becomes the source of healing for others and the world.

Through individual counselling, programs and events, Luke has an expertise in creating spaces of compassionate presence for men, young adults and people experiencing the impact of trauma.  He sees individuals and offers group therapy and learning experiences for workplaces and communities.
