About Luke
I am a Licensed Psychologist in Nevada, Oregon, & California. I am authorized to practice remotely in 40+ PsyPACT states and I have ties to Arizona, Washington, and Missouri as I was previously licensed and/or have lived in these places. My services are 100% virtual (i.e., online therapy).
I specialize in treating anxiety (and anxiety-related disorders), depression, body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs; e.g., trichotillomania and dermatillomania), and LGBTQ+ concerns, particularly transgender youth and adults. During my post-doctoral residency in Portland, OR at Portland Psychotherapy, I received specialized training in treating anxiety disorders and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)-specific training and supervision by recognized leaders in the field. In earlier years, I received training conducting evaluations within a multidisciplinary transgender health clinic.
I am a World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) Standards of Care for the Health of Transgender and Gender Diverse People, Version 8 (SOC8) Certified Member and Mentor. I am also a co-author of the SOC8. I previously served as co-chair of the WPATH Student Initiative and was the elected student representative to the WPATH Board of Directors. I currently serve as Co-Chair of the WPATH Ethics Committee. I have published qualitative, quantitative, and theoretical articles on transgender health, clinical outcomes, and ethics.

You may seem OK on the outside, but on the inside, your mind rarely slows down. There is constant mental noise: second-guessing yourself and others, constant “what ifs?”, fear of failure, or thoughts that feel intrusive and hard to dismiss. Anxiety can be subtle or overwhelming, but over time it begins to dictate choices, routines, and even your sense of self. Left unchecked, it becomes exhausting, convincing, and relentless. I specialize in treating anxiety, including OCD. Using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we focus on changing your relationship with anxiety and other uncomfortable feelings. That might mean gradually addressing avoidance tendencies, reducing compulsions, building tolerance for uncertainty, or changing how you respond to intrusive thoughts. My approach is active, practical, and collaborative. We don’t just analyze feelings - we work with them directly. I also enjoy working with ADHD, especially when anxiety and executive functioning challenges overlap. When things always feel harder than they “should” be, we focus on reducing shame, building sustainable systems, and increasing consistency. Over time, you can learn to build real trust in your ability to handle what’s in front of you. My approach blends evidence-based treatment with warmth, humor, and a clear plan. Anxiety is part of being human, but with the right support, you can build the skills to live life on your terms. I offer free 20-minute phone consults for our initial introduction to each other. Appointment slots generally offered Monday-Thursday from 11:00 to 4:00.
