WELCOME TO selva + self

We’re born wild and whole—messy, radiant, and untamed.
Over time, we learn to trade honesty for harmony, edge for ease, truth for belonging.
But the truth of who we are never disappears—it waits beneath the surface, patient as roots in winter.
Therapy is the work of remembering, of gathering every scattered piece and calling it home.
From that remembering comes peace, power, and the quiet beauty of becoming yourself again.

Come home to yourself, one breath at a time

Come home to yourself, one breath at a time

Hey, you’re here — that’s something.

Selva & Self is a small, trauma-informed therapy practice located in the heart of Milwaukee’s Bay View neighborhood. We offer personalized, relational care for individuals and couples, creating a space that feels both grounded and deeply supportive. We understand that beginning therapy can feel vulnerable — and we hold that courage with profound respect and gratitude. Each session is approached with care, integrity, and presence, honoring your pace and the trust it takes to begin.

AUTHENTICITY 

To live honestly is to meet yourself as you are, without performance or pretense.

COMPASSION

gentleness over judgment, creating space for both struggle and strength

RESILENCE 

Growth isn’t linear; it’s the courage to begin again, even after unraveling.
