About

Zulema Guerrero Ballesteros

Zulema Guerrero, MSW, LCSW has over 15 years’ experience working with children and families in various different settings and roles. She focuses on fostering a welcoming, relaxed, and trusting space where patients can feel safe and show up as they are, knowing they’ll be seen, heard, and accepted. Her therapy approach is grounded in person-centered and strength-based values, with a strong emphasis on the patient’s subjective experience. Her favorite modalities to use with children include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Play Therapy, and Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

Outside of therapy, Zulema loves spending time with her family, traveling, and trying out new recipes.
