At Lumara, we believe therapy is not only about treatment, but about honoring the fullness of who you are — mind, body, and spirit. As an integrative mental health practice in Illinois, our work is guided by the conviction that healing unfolds in relationship, through presence, and with deep respect for the larger systems that shape our lives.
We specialize in supporting adults navigating chronic illness, anxiety, and the invisible weight of stress and trauma. Through an integrative therapy approach, we create space for meaningful growth, connection, and healing that honors the complexity of your story. Our philosophy reflects the values of mind-body-spirit approaches promoted by The Center for Mind-Body Medicine, honoring the innate capacity for healing and the interconnectedness of mind, body, and environment.
Here you’ll find our approach, vision, and values—the foundation of how we practice and why this space was created.
