More about Selene

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have an extensive experience working with adults by helping them navigate relationship issues, grief, bereavement, trauma, anxiety and stress, mood issues and family concerns. I am also passionate about helping anyone who identifies as a highly sensitive person (HSP)or Empath get to see the gifts inherent in being sensitive and better understand themselves so they can navigate life in a world that feels harsh and unwelcoming at times. I am a nonjudgmental and welcoming, strength based clinician. I draw from mindfulness based cognitive behavioral approaches such as DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), helping clients identify meaning, direction and satisfaction in their life/journey. I am also trained in trauma informed EFT or using the Emotional Freedom technique to release trauma from the body, on Cognitive Processing therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I am a bilingual provider and I am happy to conduct therapy in English and Spanish.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Selene was an angel in shining light and hope in some of the darkest days of my life after dealing with a hugely traumatic shock and having no one to talk to about it with all its complexity! She was always supportive, timely and on the first weekend when I didn't know how to get through it all...she was there when other therapists/ counselors wanted to plan and schedule things, she made herself available to when it suited me and around my work. I felt I had a supportive and wise non-judgmental friend and like minded soul who was there to listen, empathize and hold my hand to start to rebuild things. Her personality shone through beyond what normal counseling and psychotherapy entails. She cares and uses her heart to reach put to the heart of others. I cant recommend her highly enough and I am now a year on and in a completely different and happy place thanks to Selene being there in the initial days weeks and months. I'm also happily married and reunited with my husband from across the world also and the future is looking bright and hopeful. Thank you is simply not enough! I wish you so much love and happiness!

I have been avoiding therapy for the past couple of years and I was especially hesitant to try online counseling. However, I decided to take that step a month ago and I was paired with Selene.

She has already helped me so much in such a short time - and I am looking forward to continuing this journey with her.

Selene has been a tremendous support for me. I was nervous to share some deeply personal choices I made and found her response very supportive and positive. Though I was scared to share this information, I am glad that I did because it opened up a deeper understanding for me that Selene was there to support me. I find that she is very caring and skilled in her counseling.
