About Selina

Selina Wigmore uses a psychodynamic approach to help people understand how past experiences shape present patterns. She aims to create a calm space where people feel heard and able to think about difficult feelings. Selina describes her work as helping people move from merely existing to living with more choice and direction.

She pays attention to recurring relationship patterns and habits that show up in daily life. By noticing these patterns together, Selina helps people challenge unhelpful ways of coping and try different responses.

Background and approach

The focus is often on relationships, self-esteem and how past events influence current struggles. Sessions typically explore issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also works with concerns around trauma and abuse, intimacy, parenting pressures, career choices and compassion fatigue.

Additional themes she addresses include abandonment, attachment difficulties, communication problems and feelings of emptiness. Selina draws on six years of clinical experience to tailor the pace and depth of therapy to each person. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

This means her practice follows the standards set by that body. People meet Selina to build a clearer sense of identity and stronger self-esteem. The work tends to be reflective and relationship-focused, with practical aims such as improving communication and coping with life changes.

Sessions are offered in English and held in the United Kingdom.

Sessions & fees

Psychodynamic work online and practical session options

Psychodynamic therapy looks at how early relationships and past experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. Online sessions let people reflect on repeating patterns in their relationships and everyday life, helping them test new ways of responding and build stronger self-understanding.

In practice, sessions are conversational and reflective. The therapist listens for themes that recur across different situations and gently brings them into view. This approach can be useful for issues such as attachment difficulties, low self-esteem, grief, and long-standing relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Selina will explore goals, needs and preferences with each person and suggest how psychodynamic work might fit. That choice is made together and can be adjusted as therapy progresses to match what feels most helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection helps the conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options add flexibility for fitting therapy around work, family and daily life.
