About Selina
Selina Bennett, LPC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or big life changes. She listens without judgment and focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. She aims to create a calm, approachable space so people feel comfortable talking about hard things.
She uses a mix of methods to match each person's needs, including Motivational Interviewing to strengthen inner motivation and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and client-centered conversations are also part of her work when they suit the issue at hand.
With three years of experience as a licensed professional counselor in Texas, she has supported people facing grief, trauma, relationship strain, caregiver stress, and substance concerns. She also addresses issues like self-esteem, intimacy-related struggles, career questions, and adjustments after major life events.
Sessions focus on clear goals, small experiments, and practical coping tools. Conversations tend to be collaborative - the client’s priorities guide what gets worked on. Selina pays attention to each person’s background and values while helping them build skills for day-to-day life.
To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapy approaches inform online work
Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what matters to them and build motivation for change through focused, respectful conversation. It can be useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps in recovery or behavior change.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and action that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by offering small experiments and practical homework.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, offering empathy and reflection to help people make sense of difficult feelings.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best given their goals, preferences, and daily demands. That decision is reviewed over time and adjusted as needed.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel, make check-ins easier to schedule, and allow shorter or focused conversations when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will fit into your routine and how sessions can be structured to support steady progress. -
