Welcome. I invite your mind, body and heart to open and receive.

My name is Viktoria and I have been a scholar of life within a variety of its depths; good, bad and ugly. My curious, adventurous and intuitive healing nature was evoked at an early age but was stifled at different trauma points. Growing up in a strict Greek orthodox family I was disciplined in the art of heightened awareness. ” If you don’t cook, clean and take care of your family, when you get married your husband will you kick you out.”  The family training of service did not prepare me for a milieu of traumas with the most profound being my arranged marriage at 18 to an abusive partner. The physical, emotional and psychological traumas activated my survival mechanism to disassociate and seek anything other than my self-care.

My transformational healing journey was lightly brushed upon at 19 as I was hurriedly told that my physical wounds and psychological scars would heal over time. Years later, I felt I needed something more than just words as my protective shield. I sought out alternative healing arts; psychotherapy, dance, kink, acupressure, intuitive bodywork, tantra, importance of sacred space, transformational counselling and energy movement (Chi Kung). A transformation of self began while activating the natural chi flow to heal, invigorate and sustain vitality, to which I could live life to its fullest passionate potential. Finally, the connection was made! The body must heal for the mind to follow.

The realization of the body, heart and mind connection, fueled my studies to become a holistic chi kung massage practitioner, teacher-trainer. A catalyst, provocateur, and intuitive avant garde relationship and intimacy coach and counsellor.

I enjoy Inspiring confidence, curiosity and authentic communication while imparting wisdom and cultivating well-being, through the values of integrity, mindfulness, and empowerment. I am known as a swirling energy of calm awareness who celebrates life by helping others reclaim their power, playfulness and natural intimacy on their terms and within their comfort levels.

As an Integrative Sexuality Coach, I use a unique combination of coaching and bodywork to help clients reconnect with their bodies and move past sexual blockages.

My approach is multifaceted. Drawing on my studies in Somatic Sex Education, Yoga, Tantra, Holistic Chi Kung massage as well as other complimentary modalities to create an approach to sexuality that integrates mind, body and spirit.

I completed my training in Somatic Sex Education through the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco. This body-based modality is complimented by my background in Hatha yoga, Chi Kung (Qi Kong), meditation, and Reiki. In addition, I’ve pursued continuing education in Trauma Sensitive Yoga and have volunteer experience through the Toronto Rape Crisis Centre as a crisis counsellor and yoga teacher for assault survivors.

My current path of study is in Existential – Integrative Psychotherapy, through The Living Institute in Toronto. This program encompasses teachings in depth psychology, as well as further body-based modalities such as primal therapy and holotropic breathwork.

Working with you towards your empowerment. I work with individuals and couples of all genders and orientations who are looking to move past old blockages and deepen their sexual experience.
