About Selina

Selina Wilkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, self-esteem struggles, anger, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and codependency patterns. Selina also supports people facing life changes like parenting challenges, career shifts, and caregiving stress.

She uses practical, evidence-based approaches in sessions. That means using things like cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts, acceptance and commitment strategies to clarify values, and attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape behavior. Conversations focus on what is bothering someone now and what skills help in everyday life.

Sessions are conversational and collaborative. Selina listens and asks straightforward questions to help people notice patterns - for example people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or getting stuck around someone else's drinking or moods. Together the pair identify small, doable steps to build boundaries, manage strong emotions, or improve sleep and daily routines.

She brings almost a quarter century of practice to practical problems like coping with loss, managing ADHD challenges, or dealing with compassion fatigue. That experience informs how she mixes methods to fit what a person needs that week.

If someone wants to try a session they are asked to use the site's matching process to schedule a first appointment. The LPC credential stands for Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan.

How sessions work

How Selina uses ACT, CBT and attachment ideas online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns like people-pleasing that get in the way of living the way someone wants. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing thought patterns and behaviors that fuel symptoms. It is practical for managing worry, sleep problems, low mood, and addictive habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations and coping. It helps when someone keeps repeating the same relationship patterns or struggles with intimacy and trust.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, what has helped before, and which methods feel like the best fit. They will adjust techniques over time based on progress and what the person prefers.

Session format details are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. In general online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow quieter surroundings when needed, or let someone do a shorter check-in during a break. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises, worksheets, and skill practice to work in remote sessions so the focus remains on useful, real-world changes rather than only theory.
