Brother you need to ask complete question, bcoz lightening can of different forms in Photoshop, like to light up the picture, or to show a source of light in picture e.g. sun or bulb or rays etc.
It’s depending on what you want to change in your photo...
(Some people likes to add only some lines around models & some likes to change sun beams & some likes to add dreamy effects… etc)
Maybe you need to use more than one tool or option to reach the desired result.
I will give you this links as an example… I wish it help
nice tutorials ..
