About Selina

Selina Wigmore is a counsellor who uses a psychodynamic approach to help people untangle patterns that keep them stuck. She aims to create a calm, attentive space where clients feel heard and able to talk about what matters most to them. Her work links past experiences with present behaviour.

She helps people spot repeating patterns and then tests different ways of responding. That often makes everyday choices feel less automatic and more intentional.

Background and approach

Selina focuses on stress and anxiety alongside relationship and self‑esteem concerns. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, career crossroads and compassion fatigue. Her wider interests include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency and feelings of emptiness.

Clients can expect a steady, reflective style. Sessions explore feelings, memories and relationship patterns. Over time this can build a clearer sense of self and stronger confidence in handling life changes.

Selina has six years of clinical experience and holds BACP accreditation, which refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English, using a mix of formats to suit different needs.

Psychodynamic work and online sessions

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how earlier relationships and life events influence current feelings and choices. It focuses on repeating patterns and the feelings that drive them, which can be useful for anxiety, relationship troubles and lingering grief.

The therapy involves reflective conversation about memories, emotions and interactions with others. The aim is to help people understand why they react in certain ways and then practise different responses in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then agree a plan together. That makes the process collaborative and tuned to each person's situation.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls suit deeper, face-to-face conversation while phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and busy lives.
