Luke Chaddick, LCSW

Luke Chaddick is a licensed clinical social worker in Louisiana with four years of practice. He focuses on clear, direct conversation and practical steps. He aims to meet each person where they are and tailor work to their needs.

Luke often helps people who are coping with anxiety, stress, depression, grief, addictions, and major life changes. He also supports people navigating LGBT-related concerns and issues like gender dysphoria. His practice includes attention to isolation, panic attacks, and problems with guilt or shame.

He blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered methods, and mindfulness in sessions. That means sessions include talking through patterns of thought and behavior, listening closely to what matters to the client, and learning simple skills to calm the body and mind. He also uses motivational interviewing to help people find the drive to make changes, and narrative work to reframe life stories.

Luke keeps sessions practical and focused on the next steps a person can take. He works with caregivers facing stress, people dealing with aging or hospice concerns, and those managing relationship and communication problems. He is open to discussing kink and alternative sex culture in a nonjudgmental way.

Starting therapy can feel hard, and Luke aims to make the process straightforward. He tailors sessions to a person's goals and checks in often to adjust the plan as needed.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life

Luke uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT often includes simple experiments and homework to test new ideas and reduce anxiety or depression. He also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around what the client says matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and take the lead on goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Luke will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. He treats the choice of approach as a collaboration, checking in and adjusting as progress is made or goals change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can connect in ways that suit their routine. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls are handy when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can fit short check-ins or busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, or caregiving responsibilities.
