270-310-9200 | Emerald Therapy Center is now Lumera Healthcare
Compassionate mental health and addiction care rooted in Western Kentucky—helping our community recover, rebuild, and thrive.
Lumera Healthcare was born from Western Kentucky’s resilience and a shared belief that recovery from mental health and addiction should feel welcoming, human, and effective. Our mission is to help the community recover and rebuild—not by relying on hospitalization as the only answer, but by making compassionate, high-quality care accessible and close to home.
At Lumera, psychiatry and psychotherapy work together—a coordinated team delivering innovative, evidence-based treatments tailored to each person. We specialize in care for children, teens, and adults, offering individualized plans that meet people where they are and support them as they move from crisis to stability to thriving.
This is the heart of Lumera: a calm, professional space that’s never sterile or intimidating; a place where people find clarity, connection, and hope. Every visit is a step toward being the brightest you—for yourself, your family, and our Kentucky community.
Absolutely changed my whole life, thank you Lumera. They believed in me when I couldn’t and wouldn’t. Now I’m unstoppable at my recovery and mental health. I highly recommend the Intensive outpatient program it saved my life.

Lumera Healthcare has been a life saver for me. I began seeing Lumera Healthcare about a year and a half ago for management of major depression and anxiety. They have gone out of their way to ensure I had the medication & therapy I needed.
