Welcome to Luma Counseling
At Luma Counseling, we specialize in providing a safe and nurturing space for individuals navigating grief, loss, trauma, and other mental health challenges. Our approach is rooted in compassion and collaboration, tailored to meet your unique needs.
In our sessions, you'll find genuine acceptance and connection, creating a supportive environment for your healing journey. Together, we'll explore your inner world, the external factors influencing you, and work towards healing at your own pace.
Additionally, we offer clinical supervision and consultation, supporting fellow professionals in their growth and development. Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience, our platformed approach ensures that you receive the guidance and support you need.
Our Services
Grief, Loss & Bereavement Counseling

Grief, Loss & Bereavement Counseling
Trauma, grief, and loss touch so many parts of our human experience and take so many different forms. They can be tangibly large points of transition in our lives like losing someone we love or experiencing violence. But they also touch the smaller, less noticed transitions, like changing jobs, parenting, interacting with systems outside of our control. I view many mental health symptoms as stemming from difficulty in previous experiences, and provide focused attention on creating a space where you can begin to move through trauma, grief, and loss and come to a place where their impact is no longer a factor impeding your wellness.

Counseling Supervision & Consultation

Counseling Supervision & Consultation
I provide evidence based, trauma-informed counseling. I use a person-centered approach, meaning that I work hard to create a safe, connected, and attuned relationship with each person who comes through my door. I believe that each individual has within them the capacity and strength to heal, and that is my job to collaborate with you in order to help you shift barriers that are impacting your sense of wellness. While I specialize in areas of grief, loss, and trauma, I also provide services addressing a variety of issues including grief and loss, trauma, women's issues, anxiety, depression, and general life stress.
Counseling supervision will increase your skill and comfort in the counseling relationship, explore person-of-therapist issues, and strengthen your ethical and administrative knowledge and application. I work with newly licensed as well as established counselors and social workers seeking clinical licensure. And am also available for consultation.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is an evidence-based, client-centered psychotherapy designed to provide rapid relief from trauma, anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. By combining relaxation techniques with guided imagery and eye movements, ART enables clients to reprocess distressing memories without extensively discussing or reliving them. Notably, many individuals experience significant improvements within just 1 to 5 sessions. Unlike Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), ART is more directive and doesn't require clients to verbalize their traumatic experiences, making it a less emotionally taxing option for those seeking swift and effective mental health treatment.
