I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing Practice. I care deeply about creating a safe, supportive space where you feel comfortable being yourself. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, PTSD, and stress. I believe that every person’s story matters, and your care should reflect your unique needs and goals.

I am accepting new clients. Please message me to set up a consultation phone call so we can discuss fit and scheduling.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist and ADHD specialist, I help individuals and couples improve their relationships and manage challenges related to communication, ADHD, parenting, and daily stress. Relationships play a big role in our well-being—they can bring closeness and joy, but also tension and disconnection. In therapy, I’ll help you notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck, let go of what isn’t working, and build healthier, more fulfilling connections. I also support individuals in handling the demands of work, parenting, and relationships with more balance and confidence.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a background in trauma-informed care, school social work, and a deep passion for supporting mothers, caregivers, and individuals healing from religious trauma. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, ADHD, and spiritual wounding. My style is warm, grounded, and collaborative, with a focus on helping clients feel safe, seen, and heard. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space for those processing complex life experiences, including clients who are deconstructing rigid belief systems or navigating the impact of spiritual abuse or exclusion. I welcome clients of all identities and backgrounds, and I deeply value honest connections and authenticity in the healing process.

I believe that medication is sometimes helpful, but it is not always the whole answer. Mental health challenges rarely come from one single source, and true healing often requires looking deeper. Together, we will work to identify underlying patterns, stressors, and root causes rather than simply treating symptoms.

You’ve already taken an important step by being here. I’m Selena Hughes, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and I work with adults facing substance use, anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, grief, and trauma. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re going through, better understand your patterns, and help you reconnect with your strengths so you can feel more hopeful and in control.

I come to therapy with a background in education and theater, which has deeply shaped how I connect with people and understand the human experience. My work is rooted in helping individuals better define who they are, where they want to be, and what may be standing in the way of getting there.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on curiosity, honesty, and growth. Together, we’ll identify obstacles, explore patterns, and engage with challenges in a meaningful way until we find solutions that truly work for you. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
