Person centered mental health counseling by women, for women. An intimate group practice in Illinois. Here, you can talk openly about your vulnerabilities.
Located in Springfield Illinois, Luminary Counseling and Solutions provides mental health services designed for women balancing career, family, personal goals, and growth. Our clinicians also provide supportive services for female adolescents to enhance self confidence, learn coping skills, and navigate life changes. Founded in 2020 by Lauren Henton and Katie Romang, the goal is to empower women to reduce feelings of overwhelm and to enhance personal and emotional clarity through mental health care. Identifying as a woman comes with many joys, and there is much to celebrate about the female experience. However, the unique roles that women play throughout their lives also come with unique difficulties. Women often put the needs of others ahead of their own and ignore their own challenges until the burden becomes too heavy. This can leave women feeling unsupported, isolated, and drained. We want to remind women how important it is to put yourself first while recognizing how hard that can be. For our younger clients, we aim to establish a solid foundation of positive self image and to infuse coping strategies that encourage befriending yourself early on, rather than normalizing an inner critic. At Luminary, our sessions provide a safe, nurturing, non-judgmental environment for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, relationships, and experiences. Consider this a safe space to turn down the volume of your inner critic, boost your self-esteem, and gain a deeper sense of emotional freedom. Our intake process is relaxed and conversational. We will listen carefully, learn about your story, and develop an understanding of what is challenging or motivating you in the present. From there, we can help you develop increased insight about the patterns of your behaviors, thoughts, feelings, and their purpose. This can help you to identify and examine more effective and satisfying ways to fulfill your life’s blueprint. We offer a safe and supportive space where you can share your challenges and get the support you deserve.

It is with so much excitement that we announce the newest addition to the Luminary Counseling Solutions team—please join us in welcoming a new provider to our practice! 🤍
Paige will begin seeing clients August 3, and her schedule will open for new client registration this Monday.
If you've been patiently waiting on our waitlist, our office will be reaching out soon to discuss establishing care with Paige. We know how difficult it can be to find the right therapist, and we are incredibly grateful for your patience as we've worked to expand access to care.
At Luminary, we're proud to be founded by women, led by women, and created exclusively for women and adolescent girls. Our leadership holds specialized certifications in Clinical Women's Mental Health, and every clinician on our team has earned an advanced graduate degree while continuing specialized training focused on the unique emotional, relational, hormonal, and life-stage experiences women navigate.
As our practice continues to grow, so does our commitment to providing Springfield and the surrounding communities with exceptional, compassionate mental health care in an environment where women feel seen, understood, and empowered.
Thank you for trusting us with your stories, your healing, and your growth. Your support has made this expansion possible, and we cannot wait for you to meet Paige.
Please help us give her a warm Luminary welcome!

We are grateful for the opportunity to do work we love and are sincerely honored to be nominated for Small Business Owners of the Year by our local Chamber of Commerce.
For The Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce's next Small Business of the Year Nominees, we have Katie Romang and Lauren Henton of Counseling and Solutions LLC. Luminary is a female-led private practice working with ages 10 and up in a space that is supportive and warm so that clients can feel restored, cared for and truly seen. Both Katie and Lauren worked in a variety of different settings in social work before meeting but were connected during covid and their vision came together quickly during a time when mental health services were in high demand. It was kismet. The two of them work side-by-side so amazingly together with so much love and positivity.
Today, they have five full-time clinicians providing impactful care for women and their mission has unfolded beautifully. "From the beginning, we set out to create a practice where care felt both clinically strong and deeply human. Seeing that intention take root in the community has been the most meaningful measure of our success."
Lauren and Katie have garnered so much love and respect with an incredible following of women who bravely reach out because metal wellness is in fact an incredible form of self-care. And after meeting these two, I am not in the least bit shocked. They felt immediately like long-lost friends and somewhere in there, I think I said I would quit everything to follow them off into the sunset, even if it meant I was a janitor for them since my degrees in mental healthcare are lacking. Hanging out with them was like a warm hug. Cheers to you both and your incredible vision for other women! Way to show up in this world and use what is so clearly an incredible gift to bring joy everywhere you both go!
