About Selina

Selina Wilkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 22 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and related life challenges. Selina also works with concerns like addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy and sleep.

Her style is direct and person-focused. Sessions look at concrete thoughts, feelings, and patterns that keep problems going. She draws on practical therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build skills for managing emotion and behavior.

Selina pays attention to attachment and how past relationships affect current responses. That can include work on abandonment, adoption and foster care themes, or attachment issues that show up as control, avoidance, or commitment difficulties. She also addresses physical and life stresses such as chronic illness, caregiving burdens, cancer, and aging concerns.

In session she helps people notice what matters to them, choose actions that fit their values, and practice new ways of coping. That may mean learning emotion regulation, changing unhelpful thinking, or strengthening communication skills. The aim is steady, practical change you can use day to day.

If you want to begin, the usual next step is to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions are conducted in English and Selina does not take international clients.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-based steps even when feelings are strong. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing alternative thinking and behaviors to reduce distress. Attachment-Based Therapy addresses patterns from past relationships that influence how someone reacts now and can be useful for anger tied to trust or loss.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and try methods that make sense for your situation. Together you can decide whether to focus more on skills training, values work, or exploring relational patterns.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, like fitting a session into a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It also allows practical exercises and worksheets to be used between sessions, and shorter check-ins when needed to reinforce skills learned in regular meetings.
