IE Therapy Services

I’m Dr. Selena Villa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to supporting children, teens, and families through life’s challenges. With years of experience in pediatric mental health, I specialize in helping young people and their families navigate anxiety, OCD tendencies, emotional overwhelm, and adjustment difficulties. At Individual Empowerment Therapy Services (IE Therapy), I believe in creating a compassionate, supportive space where children and teens feel safe, understood, and empowered. My therapeutic approach combines evidence-based practices with innovative, nature-based interventions. This includes animal-assisted therapy with chickens, which provides a calming, grounding experience that helps children regulate emotions, reduce anxiety, and build resilience. I also recognize that children do not exist in isolation: the family system plays a vital role in their growth and healing. That’s why I offer parent support services, equipping caregivers with practical strategies to foster resilience, strengthen communication, and nurture healthy family dynamics. My goal is to support not just the child, but the wholeness of your family. By blending traditional therapy with creative, nature-based approaches, I help children and families reduce anxiety, manage emotional overwhelm, and build the skills needed to face life’s transitions with confidence.
