About Selina

Selina Wilkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people regain balance and move forward. She greets new clients with a calm, nonjudgmental presence and aims to make the first step feel manageable. Her tone is practical and supportive for those who are unsure where to begin.

Over 22 years of practice in Michigan have given her experience with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and addictions. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, career transitions, ADHD, and the emotional effects of chronic illness and caregiving. Money and financial issues are among the areas she helps people sort through when these concerns affect daily life and relationships.

Her approach mixes several evidence-informed methods to match each person’s needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Sessions focus on clear skills, practical steps, and understanding what matters most to the client.

Selina treats therapy as a partnership. She listens first, then helps set realistic goals and action steps. Work in sessions often includes learning coping strategies, practicing communication, and testing new ways of handling difficult feelings.

She offers a warm, steady presence for people ready to address life changes and persistent problems. To begin, clients follow the site's matching and scheduling process to set up an initial appointment.

Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions where clarity about priorities matters.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and coping with upsetting situations.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. These skills can help with strong emotions, relationship problems, and impulse-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process may include trying techniques from different approaches until something feels useful.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use coping tools learned in session in real time between appointments. Licensed professionals will work with clients to structure sessions and homework so progress can happen outside of traditional office hours.
