Hi, I’m Victoria Zal a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in California. I’m passionately committed to guiding your journey of insight and growth, improving communication and satisfaction in your relationships effecting quality of your life. I utilize straightforward, open, and holistic approach supported by vast experience in trauma (EMDR), relationships, parenting, marriage, divorce, immigration, and neurodivergence. Looking forward to meeting you.
In our first session I would like to get a clear understanding of the concerns that bring you in and learn more about you overall.
I'm understanding, open minded and will support you healing and growth no mater what the obstacles are.
My go to is EMDR as an effective way to treat trauma and intrusive experiences that effect your functioning.
CBT therapy helps identify and face unhelpful thoughts and behaviours in order to question and replace them with those that will improve your functioning.
Psychodynamic therapy is a deeper way to explore and understand your feelings, beliefs and childhood experiences in order to recognize self-defeating patters.
Trauma-Informed Therapy assists your understanding and response to the impact of trauma on your life and emphasizes physical, psychological, and emotional safety to empower and to re-establish control of your live.
Attachment-based approach helps understand and improve thoughts, feelings, communications, behaviors, and interpersonal exchanges that were learned in childhood which now affect your communication and experiencing relationships through suppressing/avoiding/amplifying/overemphasizing.
