About Mildred
Mildred Sellars is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 21 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, and the strain of life changes. Mildred also helps people struggling with addictions, self-esteem, parenting stress, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and issues around intimacy and career concerns.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida and work across crisis units, in-home visits, residential programs, schools, and community mental health settings. She has experience with people who have severe mental illness and with foster children and foster parents. That practical variety shapes how she approaches everyday problems.
Mildred uses client-centered methods to focus on what the person needs in the moment. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and acceptance and commitment techniques to address thoughts and behaviors that make life harder. She also uses attachment-based and dialectical behavior strategies when relationships and emotional regulation are central issues.
In sessions she aims to treat people with dignity and respect and to be approachable. Conversations tend to be straightforward and focused on practical steps the client can try between sessions. Work can include coping tools, communication practice, emotion regulation skills, and planning for changes.
People who want to begin are asked to follow the site's intake steps to match and schedule a first session. Mildred works in Florida and conducts sessions in English.
How Mildred’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide what matters to them. It is often useful for anxiety, guilt, and when someone wants clearer values-driven action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers practical experiments to test different ways of responding. That approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mildred will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most in real life.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as specific delivery methods are set through the site's intake process. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let someone use quieter surroundings or turn off video if that is helpful. Licensed professionals, including Mildred, use these practical options to help therapy fit into day-to-day life rather than to promise a particular result.
