About Selphie
Selphie – Where Positive Change is Inevitable
Most people don’t seek counselling because everything is fine.
They come because something is heavy. Something is confusing. Something is exhausting.
You may be:
Tired of holding everything together.
Showing up for everyone else but running on empty yourself.
Struggling with anxiety, burnout, trauma, or emotional shutdown.
Fed up of repeating the same patterns and not knowing how to change them.
Dealing with ADHD traits like overwhelm, distraction or emotional overload.
Or simply not feeling like yourself anymore.
You don’t need to explain everything perfectly to be understood here. What matters is that you’ve realised something has to shift.
Selphie is a wellness and creative therapy practice that blends counselling, EMDR, and crafting for emotional healing and self-expression. Founded by a registered mental health professional with over 25 years of experience, Selphie provides a safe, reflective space where people can explore their thoughts, process trauma, and reconnect with who they are — through both conversation and creativity.
Our approach is grounded in evidence-based therapy and the belief that creativity can unlock peace and resilience. Whether through one-to-one counselling, EMDR for trauma recovery, or guided crafting sessions designed to calm the mind and strengthen focus, Selphie helps clients rebuild confidence and inner balance.
From January 2026, Selphie will also offer ADHD coaching, supporting clients in developing structure, self-understanding, and strategies for daily success.
Selphie isn’t just a place for therapy — it’s a space for reflection, reconnection, and growth. A space where the mind can slow down, the hands can create, and the self can begin to heal.

I didn't know that what I was experiencing had a name and it was common. I got some real gems from Selphie and I'm happier for it.
