Selina Wilkins, LPC

Selina Wilkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people find balance and meaning. She focuses on the issues that often make day-to-day life harder, including stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, and self-esteem concerns. Selina emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental space so people can speak honestly and start to feel better.

With 22 years of experience, she draws from several therapy styles and adapts them to each person's needs. Sessions aim to identify patterns that cause pain and to build simple tools for coping and change. Selina often helps people work through relationship strain, caregiving stress, career concerns, and the challenges that come with life transitions.

She also supports people facing issues related to aging and geriatric matters, chronic illness or pain, and caregiver burden. Her work addresses emotional reactions such as anger, shame, or fear, and practical problems like sleep or appetite changes. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Selina combines acceptance-based methods with cognitive and skills-focused strategies. She believes therapy is a partnership and tailors the plan to fit each person’s goals and values. Expect clear explanations, hands-on techniques, and space to talk through difficult feelings.

Sessions are offered in English and are based in Michigan. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Selina uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes because it focuses on what matters most rather than trying to eliminate every unwanted thought.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and to practice different responses. CBT provides step-by-step skills for sleep, mood, and anxiety problems and helps people test new ways of handling situations.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Selina works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as needed so work feels relevant and manageable.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use these options to help people practice skills in the context of daily routines and to maintain momentum between sessions.
