About Selene
Selene Negrette is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with 17 years of experience. She works with adults who are struggling with relationship strain, grief, trauma, anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and family-related problems. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Selene focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by others' needs, those who identify as highly sensitive people or empaths, and people coping with loss or difficult life changes. She helps clients notice where they give too much, name what matters to them, and practice clearer communication. The work tends to be practical and skills-focused rather than abstract.
Her approach draws on client-centered methods that keep the person’s perspective central. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to spot unhelpful thinking and test different behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are taught for managing intense emotions and improving regulation.
Selene also integrates mindfulness and somatic ideas to help people track what their body is signaling during stress or trauma responses. She has experience with trauma-focused techniques and with grief and end-of-life concerns, and she uses strength-based methods to help clients build on what already works for them.
Clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a first session. Because she works in both English and Spanish, people can choose the language that feels most natural to them.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the person’s experience so they feel understood. Online sessions let the therapist and client talk through concerns, clarify values, and set small goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors through concrete exercises and homework that can be discussed during remote sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that are practiced in session and applied between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean using CBT tools for thought patterns, DBT skills for emotion management, or mindfulness and body-based practices when stress shows up in the body.
Session options supported by this profile are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when that suits the client, and remove commuting time. They also let people choose a language for the conversation, since sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Licensed professionals and therapists will work with each person to shape a plan that fits day-to-day life.
