Bio At A Glance:

Viktoria is a Registered Psychotherapist offering virtual therapy across Ontario. She provides compassionate, person-centered support for teens, adults, and couples navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. Viktoria offers therapy in both English and Armenian for clients who prefer to work in their first language.

Connecting with someone new and sharing your innermost thoughts, emotions, and experiences is incredibly brave. If this is your first time in therapy, opening yourself to the unknown takes courage, vulnerability, and dedication that I empathize with and value tremendously.

The central lens I use in my work is person-centered therapy. Through it I create a safe, compassionate, and collaborative environment where we can work together to identify goals and roadblocks. It’s important to me that you feel understood and motivated towards change in our therapeutic relationship. I wholeheartedly believe in your resilience, intuition, and inner strength at each stage of growth.

My goal is to genuinely connect with you and guide you towards making the shifts that best align with your authentic self. After we’ve established an understanding of the thoughts and feelings underlying certain behaviours, we can work together to challenge them, leading to growth and newfound possibilities. Through the joint development of coping tools and mindfulness practices, I hope to promote balance and agency in your life.

For couples, I draw from Gottman Method principles to help partners understand their relationship patterns, improve communication, and rebuild connection. Whether you are navigating conflict, recovering from a breach of trust, or simply wanting to strengthen your bond, couples therapy can provide a space for both partners to feel heard and to grow together.

Viktoria's Experience

Viktoria is a Registered Psychotherapist with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. In the past several years she has experienced working with a variety of populations including individuals with depression, PTSD, anxiety, psychotic disorders, trauma, traumatic brain injuries, and suicidal ideation. Through teachings in her education, professional work experience, and personal life, she has become acutely aware of the joys and challenges of self-exploration, vulnerability, and recognizing the influence of the past on the present.

 

Life's Motivational Mottos

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it, and embrace them”. – Rumi 

Answers to some frequently asked questions:

Yes. I offer therapy sessions in both English and Armenian for clients across Ontario. Working in your first language can make it easier to express complex emotions and feel fully understood, especially when discussing family dynamics, cultural expectations, or sensitive personal experiences.

I currently offer online and phone therapy only, which allows me to support clients anywhere in Ontario. Many clients find virtual therapy to be convenient and comfortable, allowing them to connect from home, work, or wherever feels most private and relaxed.

Yes. I offer couples therapy using a Gottman Method informed approach. The Gottman Method is a research-based framework that helps couples understand their relationship patterns, improve communication, manage conflict constructively, and deepen their emotional connection. Whether you are navigating ongoing tension, recovering from a difficult period, or simply wanting to strengthen your relationship, I can help.

Person-centered therapy is an approach that trusts in your innate capacity for growth and self-understanding. Rather than positioning myself as the expert on your life, I work collaboratively with you, providing a supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. I believe you have the inner wisdom to find your path forward, and my role is to help you access it.

Yes. Trauma therapy is one of my core areas of focus. I have experience working with clients who have experienced PTSD, childhood trauma, relational trauma, and traumatic brain injuries. My approach is trauma-informed, meaning I prioritize safety, go at a pace that feels manageable for you, and help you process difficult experiences in a supportive environment.

Because I offer virtual therapy exclusively, I am able to work with clients anywhere in Ontario. Whether you are in Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, or a more rural community, you can access therapy from wherever you are.
