Illuminate Your Life with Lumina Counseling

Welcome

Exploring therapy can feel really scary and even intimidating at times, especially when you're facing challenges or going through stressful experiences. But the very fact that you’re here, seeking help, shows just how much strength and courage you have.

My name is Megan Hoback, and as your therapist, I’m here to stand by you and support you every step of the way. Our therapeutic journey together starts by clearly identifying your goals for therapy, and from there, we move forward on the path of meaningful change. My role is to offer consistent support as you navigate the discomfort that often comes with personal growth and transformation. This is why having a trained, licensed therapist by your side is so important — to guide you through the process with expertise and care and to ensure you're equipped to make lasting changes.

Our goal is to help you regain control over your thoughts and emotions, allowing you to feel more at peace and confident in navigating life’s complexities.

Emotion Regulation

If you are finding it difficult to navigate, identify, or manage your emotions, together we can explore and gain a deeper understanding of your emotional experiences while developing tools to respond and cope in healthier ways. Through this process, we will work on creating a balanced emotional toolkit that empowers you to handle challenging situations with greater ease. Our focus will be on helping you develop greater emotional awareness, leading to more peace and fulfillment in your everyday life.

Self-Compassion

If you find that you are speaking to yourself in unkind ways, self-criticizing, or have a low sense of self-worth, we offer a nurturing space to explore your inner world and develop a kinder, more understanding relationship with yourself. Together, we will uncover the origins of these negative beliefs and work toward replacing them with self-compassion and acceptance. Our focus will be on empowering you to embrace your strengths, foster a positive self-image, and build a deeper connection with your true worth.
