Celia Kolarik

Mental Health & Art Therapist Practitioner

​

Hi, I'm Celia! I'm a Mental Health and Art Therapist Practitioner with a foundation in Adlerian Psychology and a passion for helping children and adolescents discover the healing power of creativity.

I believe we are all creative beings, and that art offers a meaningful way to explore emotions, express ourselves, and connect with the world around us. Sometimes, finding the words to describe what we're feeling can be difficult, especially for young people navigating life's challenges.

 

My hope is to create a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental space where children and adolescents feel comfortable being themselves, exploring their experiences, and discovering new ways to express what may be difficult to put into words.

Therapeutic Approach

I especially enjoy supporting children and adolescents navigating trauma, behavioral challenges, emotional regulation, and self-discovery. My approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and developmentally sensitive, recognizing that each young person has unique strengths, needs, and ways of communicating. Through art therapy and creative exploration, I help clients express emotions, build resilience, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves. I incorporate a variety of art materials and creative approaches, allowing each child to engage in ways that feel natural, comfortable, and empowering. I also value collaboration with families and caregivers when appropriate, helping foster connection, understanding, and meaningful change both inside and outside the therapy room.

Beyond The Therapy Room

Outside of the therapy room, creativity continues to be an important part of my life! I enjoy spending time making art, exploring my imagination, and finding inspiration through storytelling. I also love watching films by Hayao Miyazaki, whose imaginative worlds and beautiful animation bring together two things I enjoy: art and storytelling!

Let's Grow Together

Every child deserves a space where they feel heard, understood, and encouraged to explore who they are. I believe creativity can open doors to connection, confidence, and healing in ways that words alone sometimes cannot. Whether your child is navigating difficult emotions, past experiences, or everyday challenges, my hope is to provide a supportive environment where they can discover their strengths and develop tools to navigate the world around them.

 

I would be honored to walk alongside your child and family, nurturing creativity, resilience, and the possibility of a brighter future.
