Welcome to Counseling

Starting counseling is a brave and hopeful step. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, counseling offers a safe and supportive space to explore your story and begin the process of healing and growth. It’s a place to be heard without judgment, to gain insight, and to develop the tools you need to live with greater freedom and purpose. I’m here to walk alongside you in that journey.

About Me
I’m Zion Selent, a clinical mental health counselor with a passion for helping children, teens, and young adults navigate life’s challenges with clarity, confidence, and compassion. I’m known for my calm, approachable presence and my ability to build strong, trusting relationships with clients—especially those who may be hesitant to open up. I’ve supported individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and identity-related struggles. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or your child, my goal is to create a therapeutic space where you feel safe, empowered, and genuinely cared for.

Having personally experienced depression and anxiety during my adolescent years, I understand how overwhelming and isolating those struggles can feel. One truth I’ve learned is that no matter how hard life gets, healing is possible—and things can get better. As a counselor, part of my mission is to walk alongside those who feel overwhelmed, hopeless, or unsure of their purpose, but who still carry a desire for growth, change, and healing. If you’re yearning to feel better, to reconnect with joy, and to regain a sense of direction, I’m here to support you. While I cannot promise specific outcomes, I can promise to be present, respectful of your time, and fully committed to working with you toward the goals that matter most to you.

Education & Training
I hold a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a bachelor’s degree in psychology with a minor in Sociology. My clinical training includes extensive supervised experience providing individual and group therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. I’ve facilitated groups focused on DBT skills, men’s recovery, addiction support, CBT, and life skills in both outpatient and residential settings. I’ve also received focused supervision in diagnostic assessment, trauma-informed care, and faith-integrated counseling. Additionally, I’m a SYMBIS Certified Facilitator, trained to support couples in building strong, Christ-centered relationships.

My Theoretical Approach
My counseling approach is rooted in both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy. I use CBT to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while building practical skills for coping and growth. At the same time, I value the deeper work of Psychodynamic Therapy, which explores how early experiences and relational patterns shape who we are today. This integrative approach allows me to support clients in both immediate relief and long-term transformation. I also incorporate trauma-informed care, DBT skills, and faith-based counseling when desired—always tailoring the work to meet your unique goals and values.
