About Zelimna
Zelimna Taveras is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who offers bilingual care in English and Spanish. She brings eight years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting concerns, and relationship and intimacy issues. She uses an attachment-based perspective to understand how early relationships affect current patterns.
That view often informs work around abandonment, attachment issues, and communication problems.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) strategies are used to build coping skills for mood, anxiety, and anger concerns. Zelimna also addresses grief, body image, eating and sleeping concerns, ADHD, and the challenges that arise with life changes. She incorporates elements of the Gottman Method when discussing relationship dynamics and communication.
Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to help regulate emotions and improve focus. Her background includes experience with trauma and abuse, adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, and people affected by domestic violence or separation. She draws on motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas to set practical goals and foster small, steady changes.
Sessions are offered in multiple formats, allowing people to choose what fits their schedule and comfort. Zelimna aims to create an open, respectful space where clients can work toward clearer thinking, stronger boundaries, and improved well-being.

Online support
Attachment-informed care and skills-based online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and connections, and is useful for people dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, and recurring communication problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help with intense emotions and relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasize attachment understanding, skills from CBT or DBT, or a mix that fits the situation.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls let people read facial cues during deeper conversations, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options provide flexibility so people can keep continuity of care while balancing work, school, or family commitments.
