I am accepting new clients as of 3/6/2026! Welcome! My name is Viktor. I run a therapy practice called Fidanexa Counseling, PLLC. The business name means "trust" and "connection", two things that are important to good therapy, and a happy life. There's a link to my business' website below - click "My Website". I am happy to speak with you to answer your questions and see if my experience matches your needs. You can schedule with me on my website (please see link below), or contact me through Psychology Today.
I have over a decade of experience as a therapist. Many of the men and women I work with struggle to trust, connect, or feel. I can support you through difficult experiences like trauma or abuse, addiction, infidelity, problems with porn, and sexual concerns. I strongly believe LGBTQ+ people deserve a safe space to work through life's challenges.
Want to see if my experience matches your needs? Let's talk! I offer daytime and evening hours, weekday and Saturday appointments. I can meet with you in person in Shelton, CT, and through telehealth anywhere in CT. Sessions with me run 45-55 minutes for individual therapy, and weekly sessions are standard. I do accept clients with Husky insurance.

I help people recognize and manage, their trauma. I create safe and comfortable spaces for people to talk about what truly bothers them. I believe in the importance of giving LGBT people a place to call their own. Many men have few people they can really be honest with; I offer them a chance to unload their problems, without fear of judgment.

My approach to therapy encourages people to (1) identify and resolve their current struggles, and (2) understand the underlying reasons for their struggles, to hopefully stop these issues from reoccurring. We can explore your present thoughts, feelings, and decisions, as well as your past experiences. I'm like a Human GPS: You tell me where you want to go, and I give you options to get there.
