About Selina
She provides a caring, nonjudgmental space to talk through strong emotions and difficult memories. Sessions are practical and tailored to the person in front of her. Selina helps people identify what matters to them and build skills to handle stress, anxiety, anger, and low mood.
Over 22 years she has worked with many concerns including grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, body image, and challenges tied to caregiving or chronic illness. She also supports people facing life transitions, career strain, attention differences, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes using approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered work.
Selina aims to make therapy a true collaboration. She listens first, then offers tools that fit the person’s goals and daily life. Progress is measured in small, meaningful changes rather than quick fixes.
To begin, a person completes a short questionnaire and schedules sessions based on availability. Selina practices in Michigan and conducts sessions in English.
How trauma-informed and evidence-based approaches work online
Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding and processing traumatic memories and their effects. Online work can help people pace that processing and practice coping skills between sessions.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical ways to notice thoughts and make room for valued actions. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes by helping people choose steps that match their values.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections. This approach can help people improve emotional regulation and build healthier ways of relating to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs, adjusting the plan as you go. That collaborative process helps identify which techniques feel most helpful.
Confirm the specific session options before booking, since formats are set by the practice. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules call for them. Many people find it more convenient to keep regular appointments this way while still doing hands-on therapeutic tasks between meetings.
