About Celia Castulo

Sometimes what you need most isn’t to relive every hard chapter of your story — it’s a clear, supportive plan for where you want to go next.

I’m Celia Castulo, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Latina Licensed Social Worker (LSW) at Ellie Mental Health in Lincolnwood, IL. My background in community mental health has prepared me to meet clients of all ages through a wide range of life’s challenges, with an approach that’s strengths-based and solution-focused — meaning our sessions are built around where you want to go, not just where you’ve been.

I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where every client feels genuinely heard and empowered. Drawing on my background in community mental health, I use a trauma-informed, strengths-based, and solution-focused approach, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to provide individualized, evidence-based care to children, teens, adults, and families alike.

As a Latina and bilingual clinician, I understand the importance of culturally responsive care and recognize that many clients feel more comfortable expressing themselves in Spanish. I’m committed to creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout your therapeutic journey.

If you’re looking for a bilingual, culturally attuned therapist to help you build practical tools and move forward with confidence, I’d be honored to work with you. Contact Ellie Mental Health in Lincolnwood to schedule a session with Celia — sessions available in English and Spanish.
