Zina Petrov

I bring a broad perspective to my practice having studied clinical psychology and systems theory abroad before bringing my practice to the US more than a decade ago. I’ve spent years training in advanced, deep-dive modalities like Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, IFS, and EMDR, specializing in helping people untangle complex trauma, anxiety, relational chaos, and intense emotional reactivity. If you are scrolling through profiles today feeling completely overwhelmed, I want you to know that you are already helping yourself and that you don't have to carry it alone.

My style balances a deep exploration of complex patterns with a practical approach. I will help you translate therapy isights into tangible new approaches that will help you create an internal compass to take with you in your daily life. We will use the tools that fit your context and style keeping our work down-to-earth and tailored to you.

In our first session and beyond, my primary goal is to make you feel comfortable and deeply heard. I bring a calm presence and attune my pacing to what your unique nervous system needs, often asking for your permission to slow down or use grounding strategies. Together, we will start mapping out the dynamics and patterns of how you interact with your experience. You can expect active collaboration from me as we share the controls, ensuring our work is tailored specifically to you and your context.
