Meet Zulma

I provide a warm, compassionate, and collaborative space for adults navigating complex trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, codependency, and life transitions. My holistic, trauma-informed approach supports healing and growth. I am certified in Addiction, EMDR, DBT, and Trauma-Informed Clinical Hypnotherapy. Together, we explore patterns rooted in past experiences, strengthen emotional regulation, establish healthy boundaries, and build self-worth. I welcome clients ready to commit to their healing and create meaningful change.

Interests

Outside of my clinical work, I enjoy dancing, spending time in nature, practicing yoga, and staying active through fitness. In addition to being a therapist, I am a yoga instructor, fitness instructor, and dance instructor. Movement has always been an important part of my life, and I value the connection between physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I am passionate about personal growth and continue to nurture my own healing journey, including my ongoing work with complex trauma. I believe healing is a lifelong process that invites us to deepen our self-awareness, practice self-compassion, and reconnect with ourselves. My personal commitment to growth complements my appreciation for helping others navigate their own journeys. I also enjoy exploring spirituality, learning new things, watching thought-provoking films, having meaningful conversations, and embracing quiet moments in nature. I value living a balanced, fulfilling life that makes room for movement, reflection, connection, and continued growth.
