Vitoria Cottiss, AMFT(She/Her/Hers)

Vitoria Cottiss, AMFT, supports individuals and couples navigating grief, caregiving roles, major life transitions, and relationship challenges. Many of her clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally depleted, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Vitoria offers a grounded, compassionate space where clients can slow down, feel deeply understood, and begin to move forward with greater clarity and self-trust.

Her therapeutic approach integrates psychodynamic and relational therapy with mindfulness-based practices. Together, clients explore unconscious patterns, emotional wounds, and relational dynamics that shape how they experience themselves and others. Sessions are collaborative, attuned, and thoughtfully paced, supporting both insight and meaningful, sustainable change.

Vitoria also incorporates experiential approaches informed by psychedelic-assisted therapy, helping clients access deeper self-awareness while remaining safe, supported, and integrated in their day-to-day lives. Her clinical work is informed by experience across community mental health clinics, substance use treatment programs, private school settings, and a psychedelic therapy practice—allowing her to hold complexity with sensitivity, curiosity, and care.

Based in Southern California, Vitoria offers in-person sessions as well as telehealth services throughout California.
