About Selina

Selina Bennett is a licensed professional counselor based in Texas who supports people working through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and major life changes.

Background and approach

With an LPC credential and three years of clinical experience, she focuses on helping clients build practical coping skills and strengthen self-understanding to move forward from trauma, compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, and intimacy-related struggles.

Her approach blends evidence-based techniques with a warm, collaborative stance, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, existential exploration, and client-centered methods. She emphasizes skill development for communication, emotion regulation, and resilience while attending to concerns such as caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, codependency, and issues that affect life purpose or career satisfaction.

Selina works with a broad range of presenting issues including postpartum depression, veteran and armed forces issues, fertility and family transitions, and challenges like infidelity, isolation, or feelings of emptiness. Sessions aim to balance practical tools and reflective work so clients can set goals, reduce distress, and reorient toward meaningful next steps.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Selina integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete coping strategies. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, validation, and collaboration, creating a space where clients can explore values and goals at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative work she does with clients. She will discuss needs, preferences, and goals early in care and adapt techniques from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, or existential exploration as appropriate so the plan feels responsive and workable for each person.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes therapy more flexible and accessible for varying schedules and comfort levels. These formats support continuity of care when in-person meetings are not practical and allow clients to use tools and exercises from sessions in real time under the guidance of a licensed professional.
