  • Therapist in Indianapolis, IN

    Hi, I’m Hollyn Swider—an Indianapolis Midtown mom of two, wife, licensed clinical social worker, and registered expressive arts therapist.

    I help children, teens, and moms navigate life’s challenges with compassion, creativity, and connection. Whether you're a parent concerned about your child, a teen feeling overwhelmed, or a mom trying to juggle it all, you don’t have to do it alone.

    With experience in schools, hospitals, and outpatient settings, I offer a flexible, personalized approach that blends traditional therapy with expressive arts like art, music, and movement. For those who connect through creativity, this can be a powerful path to healing.

    No matter where you are in your journey, I’m here to listen, support, and walk alongside you as you move forward.

  • Licensed Clinical Social Worker

    Masters Degree in Social Work, from Indiana University in Indianapolis, concentration in Mental Health & Addictions

    Bachelors Degree in Social Work, from Indiana University in Indianapolis

    Registered Expressive Arts Therapist, from the Trauma-Informed Practices & Expressive Arts Therapy Institute

    EXAT, Expressive Arts Therapist Continuing Education Credential

  • I use a flexible, personalized approach to therapy, blending evidence-based methods with creativity and compassion. Depending on your needs, I may draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Solution-Focused Therapy, or Motivational Interviewing. For those who connect through art, music, or movement, I offer Expressive Arts Therapy as a powerful, nonverbal way to explore emotions and promote healing. My work is also grounded in attachment theory to support deeper connection and emotional security. Whether you’re seeking structure, self-expression, or both, we’ll work together to find what helps you feel supported and empowered.

  • Going on walks, family movie nights, shopping, reading, golf, and being creative!
