UsWeekly reported she has been spending time with her mother and grandmother as well, even dining with them at the Riverstone Restaurant.
The brunette beauty was also seen at a local arcade earlier this week where she was looking at a display of ice cream. She appeared to be in fine spirits.
'She will be there for a few months,' a source told the magazine, adding that it's a women's only institution in Seymour. There are trees and fields surrounding the place to add to the privacy.
'It's exactly what Selena needs,' added the insider.

She canceled her Revival tour in August to deal with her anxiety and depression that stems having Lupus.
The announcement also came after a social media spat with Bieber over his new love Sofia Richie (the two have since split) and just before claims Angelina Jolie didn't like that she was talking to Brad Pitt at a Golden Globe party last winter. He had cast her in his film The Big Short.
The length of time Selena is taking away from her career is a surprise as it seemed at first as if her break would only be weeks. The Same Old Love hitmaker has also put the production of her sixth album on hold and there is no start date set.

Her last album Revival was a massive success with hits such as Good For You, Hands To Myself and Kill Em With Kindness.
It was added by InTouch that fans would be in 'shock' if they knew how bad off the star was.
But it was added she is now 'in good spirits' and has been talking to friends.
The actress told People in August: 'As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways.

'I’ve discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges.'
Selena continued: 'I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off.'
She thanked her fans for their support, also sharing: 'I know I am not alone by sharing this, I hope others will be encouraged to address their own issues.'
This is her second time in rehab. In 2014 she got help in an Arizona facility.
