Testimonials

Working with Luke has truly been a transformative journey for me. His thoughtful guidance, genuine compassion, and unwavering support have been invaluable as I navigated through rough patches, providing me with a newfound sense of clarity and confidence in my decision-making skills. Right from our very first session, Luke's experience, expertise, and empathy shone through, allowing me to feel seen and understood in a way that I hadn't experienced with other mental health professionals. What sets Luke apart from other mental health professionals is his holistic approach; he meets you where you are while encouraging acknowledgment of growth and validating struggles and setbacks. I am deeply grateful for the positive impact Luke has had on my life, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone seeking guidance to improve their life.

If it wasn't for Luke Ryan and the work we did together I would still be a miserable "girl" in a dress. Luke helped me to understand my true gender identity and I never would have been able to make my transition without the service, understanding and compassion of working with Luke. I will be forever grateful.

Luke is an incredibly talented and skilled counselor and life coach. His expertise in sexuality, gender, addiction and general coaching are helpful to not only clients, but to other mental health professionals, like myself. I have had the pleasure of seeing Luke in action as I have worked closely with him for years now. His skills and experience are invaluable. Luke truly meets his clients where they are with much compassion and understanding. I can't recommend him enough!
