• MA, RYT, APCC

    Hi there! I’m Selena (or Selly) and I’m passionate about enhancing holistic well-being through an integrative, culturally sensitive, and person-centered lens. My approach is warm and collaborative, empowering you to feel in charge of your own unique path toward growth and healing.

    I have extensive experience with mindfulness-based, somatic, and expressive arts techniques – such as using yoga, breathwork, progressive muscle relaxation, painting, creative writing, sculpting, acting, dance, and music to facilitate the therapeutic process.

    I also draw from other evidence-based methods, depending on your needs and preferences, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical-behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, emotionally focused therapy, family systems therapy, feminist therapy, systemic therapy, and eye-movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR).

    My focus for treatment includes, but is not limited to, anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, emotional disturbances, relational and attachment challenges, family conflicts, mood disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., ASD, ADHD), gender/sexual/LGBTQ+ issues, women’s issues, and multicultural/systemic challenges.

    I believe that, despite any external challenges, you already have the resilience and strength within you to be your most mindful, authentic, and fulfilled self. I’m just here to offer you reliable tools and unconditional support along the way!
