RICHARD ZAMORA (They/Them)

I work with individuals impacted by trauma to reduce symptoms such as hypervigilance, avoidance, emotional numbing, and distressing memories. Using a trauma-informed and somatic-aware approach, I support clients in restoring a sense of safety, meaning, and resilience while moving at a pace that feels empowering.

I support individuals and couples navigating relationship challenges such as communication difficulties, trust issues, emotional disconnection, and recurring conflict. I help clients explore relational patterns, attachment dynamics, and unmet needs to foster healthier, more secure, and intentional relationships.

I support families navigating conflict, communication breakdowns, and relational stress. I help individuals and families identify unhelpful patterns, understand emotional and cultural dynamics, and build healthier ways of relating that foster clarity, accountability, and connection.

My expertise in relationship counseling is grounded in advanced clinical training, trauma-informed care, and extensive experience working with diverse relational systems. I help individuals and couples understand attachment patterns, communication styles, and the impact of past experiences on present relationships. I specialize in guiding clients toward greater emotional insight, accountability, and more secure, connected relationships.

My work in somatic therapy is rooted in the understanding that trauma is held not only in the mind, but in the body. I help clients develop awareness of physical sensations, nervous system responses, and embodied emotions to gently process trauma and reduce distress. This body-based approach supports regulation, resilience, and a deeper sense of safety and connection.

I integrate mindfulness, values-based work, and behavioral change strategies to help clients build psychological flexibility and navigate distress without being controlled by it. My approach emphasizes practical application, self-compassion, and meaningful action in real-life contexts.
