Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Selena! I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who is passionate about helping teens and adults navigate anxiety, grief, trauma, OCD, life transitions, and the stress that can come with everyday life. I especially enjoy working with high-functioning women who often appear like they have it all together while feeling overwhelmed on the inside, but I also love supporting adolescents and adults from all walks of life. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or feeling like you have to have everything figured out.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not an interrogation. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth, with a balance of compassion, curiosity, and a little humor when it feels right. I’ll support you, encourage you, and gently challenge unhelpful patterns, because growth often happens when we feel both safe and willing to try something new. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, attachment-based therapy, and trauma-informed care, but I tailor each session to fit you and how you may arrive that day.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is simply a chance for us to get to know each other. We’ll talk about what’s been weighing on you, what brought you to therapy, and what you hope life could look like with the right support. Together, we’ll identify meaningful, realistic goals and create a plan that feels manageable and personalized to your needs. You don’t need to prepare or have the “right” words—I just want you to leave feeling heard, understood, and hopeful about what’s possible.
