About Mildred
Mildred Sellars is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 21 years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and life transitions. She also helps those managing addiction, parenting challenges, ADHD, and workplace or career concerns.
She trained at the University of Central Florida and has worked in crisis units, residential settings, schools, community mental health, and in-home care. That range gave her experience with people who have severe mental illness, foster care situations, adolescents, and families. She has spent a lot of time on grief counseling and on issues that come with changing life stages.
Mildred uses a client-centered way of working. That means sessions focus on what the person needs and values. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to offer practical strategies and skills.
Sessions typically include noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses. People can expect straightforward tools for managing emotion, improving communication, and handling stress. She pays attention to patterns from childhood and relationships when those are relevant to current concerns.
Mildred’s background includes work with foster children and parents, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and first responder issues. Her broad experience informs how she helps people set goals, try practical steps, and track what does or does not work.

How Mildred uses structured approaches in online sessions
Mildred uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. CBT gives clear exercises and short experiments to try between sessions, and it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take manageable action despite difficult feelings. ACT focuses on noticing internal experiences while committing to practical steps that fit the person’s life. Attachment-Based Therapy is used when patterns from early relationships affect current connections; it looks at how repeating patterns can be noticed and shifted to improve communication and closeness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mildred will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques to try based on goals, preferences, and what produces progress. That means plans can change over time as a person tests methods and tracks what helps.
The site’s booking flow begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. The original biography does not specify session formats here, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so appointments are simpler to attend.
