Meet the Associates

Hello there! We’re so glad you’ve landed on our website. Today we are excited to introduce the current group of LPC-associates that are part of Luminary Counseling PLLC. Instead of sticking to tradition, we asked them some fun questions so you can get to know them better on a personal level.

To learn more about their therapy practice, and contact them for a consultation, you can visit their individual profiles and reach out!
