Victoria Zal

I bring both professional training and lived experience with trauma, major life transitions, parenting, relationships, marriage, divorce, and navigating ADHD and ASD.

I integrate EMDR and Relational Life Therapy (RLT) to explore past experiences, relationship dynamics, and protective patterns with compassion and curiosity. Our work is collaborative, honest, and grounded in practical change—supporting greater self-trust, clarity, healthier boundaries, and a more authentic sense of self.

Appointments are available on Telehealth. For scheduling inquiries please text me directly at 310-746-7223.

My approach is straightforward, open, and grounded in both professional training and lived experience. I bring a trauma-informed, relational perspective to therapy, drawing from EMDR, somatic, and evidence-based approaches. I work collaboratively to help clients understand how past experiences, relationships, and patterns may be shaping the present—while building practical tools for greater clarity, self-trust, and meaningful change. My experience with major life transitions, trauma, parenting, marriage, divorce, immigration, relationships, ADHD, and ASD informs a compassionate and deeply human approach.

We’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you hope to change, and the experiences that have shaped you. I’ll listen for patterns, strengths, and areas that may need support, while beginning to develop a shared understanding of your goals. The first session is a collaborative starting point, with no expectation that you have everything figured out.
