Luminary Therapy was created by founder, Jewel Cunningham, after a decade of exploring integrative healing practices.  During this time, Jewel noticed that healing one's "mental health" was so much deeper than traditional talk therapy.  Yes, coping skills are important, but this only lends to one sliver of the healing spectrum.  This led her to search for a deeper felt sense of healing and connection through non traditional practices.  Through many bumps in the road, she discovered a variety of practices that incorporate mind, body, and spirit healing.  

​

While none of these practices holds all the answers, they each offer an opportunity for one's potentiation.  We often look for the thing that will solve our problems or provide relief to our suffering.  This can lead to an endless loop of searching for answers, some of which compound feelings of emptiness.  All attempts at healing hold value, even when unfruitful.  "Breakthrough moments are often the result of many previous actions that build up the potential that is required to unleash a major change."  While these breakthroughs do happen, we work towards building upon the smaller moments in therapy as a funnel towards these leaps of insight.  As the old adage goes, it’s the little things that make all the difference.  We believe in working with clients to build a strong foundation for these breakthroughs to occur and be integrated long term. 

 

Luminary Therapy clinicians are highly skilled and trained in evidenced based practices.  We are also open minded and practiced in a variety of alternative therapies, spirituality, intersectionality, gender identity, diversity, racialized trauma, and other complementary practices.  We value learning and growth as apart of our own foundation and are excited to learn more about your healing journey.
