Celina Jacques
LMFT
Psychotherapy and Art Therapy
Celina (she/her) is a creative soul, a wounded healer, an artist, psychotherapist, and art therapist. Her journey began from feeling frightened and small, searching for safety and wholeness; to the luminous process of finding mentors, healers, teachers, and ultimately, herself. This journey included reconnecting with spirituality, studying meditation, neuroscience, psychology, and the ancient healing practice of curanderismo. She studied Marriage and Family Therapy and Art Therapy at Phillips Graduate University and holds a MA in Psychology.
Celina is here for you as a witness and a guide. Her vision is to passionately engage creativity and ritual as a healing tool for the heart, mind, and soul. She is at your services to help fortify your inner strength and cultivate hope & joy. Celina holds individual therapy sessions with adults and families as well as community art therapy workshops. In addition to local services, she also facilitates an annual retreat in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and is hoping to add more soon.

“I love going to this place. It's a beautiful little house with many service rooms. a great location in silver lake at the corner of sunset. Very peaceful and always smells great. The services are reasonably priced, and the rooms are serene and extremely comfortable. definitely an oasis. a home away from home.”
