About Selina
Selina Wigmore is a counsellor who works from a psychodynamic approach. She focuses on helping people connect what happened in the past with what is happening now. Her aim is to help people move from merely existing to living with more agency and purpose.
She pays attention to repeating patterns in relationships and behaviour. Once those patterns are noticed, sessions look at how to challenge and change them. That can help with stress, anxiety, depression and difficulties around intimacy.
Background and approach
Selina also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and compassion fatigue. She helps people who struggle with self-esteem, communication problems and feelings of emptiness. Parenting concerns and career stress are part of her work too.
In sessions she works to build understanding and a stronger sense of identity. People explore why they react in certain ways and practise new ways of relating. The work is steady and reflective, not rushed.
Selina is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has six years of clinical experience working with adults in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English and carried out using online formats.

Approaches Selina lists

Psychodynamic work adapted for online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how earlier experiences shape current feelings and relationships. It helps people notice repeating patterns and understand why they react as they do, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, relationship problems and low self-esteem.Sessions emphasise talking, reflection and gentle exploration of emotions and memories. The counsellor helps people connect past and present events and try out different responses in day-to-day life. This approach can support work on grief, trauma, intimacy concerns and patterns that affect parenting and career decisions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and the counsellor will work collaboratively to choose what fits best. Together they will set goals, review progress and adjust the way of working based on needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues and build rapport, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for short check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit quick reflections or those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and daily life while keeping the therapeutic focus intact.
