Selena Shelley, MA, LMHC, CD, LCCE
Psychotherapist & Trainer
Welcome! I have spent the past twenty-five years supporting clients, especially pregnant, birthing, and parenting individuals and families. My work has included a variety of roles, including:
​
-
teen parent case manager
-
reproductive health advocate
-
domestic violence advocate
-
birth doula (for both private and underserved/low-income clients)
-
program manager
-
board program committee chair
-
private practice psychotherapist
-
childbirth and parenting educator
-
pregnant and postpartum trauma survivor consultant
-
when survivors give birth approved trainer
-
mentor and consultant for other perinatal professionals
-
child & family therapist with prenatally substance exposed children and their families
-
adjunct faculty with university midwifery students
Ultimately, I want to help people better understand themselves and/or have a better pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and parenting experience. Sometimes that looks like working with teens and adults on their own childhood traumas and family of origin experiences; sometimes that looks like working with parents, from pre-conception through pregnancy, birth, and parenting; and sometimes that looks like training and mentoring other professionals who serve pregnant, birthing, and postpartum/parenting individuals.
