Hi, I’m Victoria Oblisk, LPCC, LICDC. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Public Health from Hiram College and my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Kent State University.
I became a therapist because I’ve always been drawn to people’s stories; the parts of life that are heavy, complicated, and often carried alone for too long. My work is centered around helping people feel less alone in what they’re going through and more supported as they move toward healing.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, substance use concerns, relationship challenges, stress, and major life transitions. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck internally.
I’ve completed extensive additional training throughout my career, including EMDR therapy, which helps clients process experiences that still feel “stuck” or unresolved.
My goal is to create a space that feels safe, grounded, and real; where you don’t have to have it all together, and you don’t have to go through things alone

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding addiction therapists in Cleveland starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include help with alcohol use, substance use, nicotine dependence, gambling, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address. Some therapists use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction-informed care. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Cleveland has a strong mental health care community, with options across the city and nearby areas, but fit still depends on practical details. You may prefer an in-person office near work, home, or transit, while virtual appointments can make it easier to choose from more therapists across Ohio. Addiction support can also change over time, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a nonjudgmental approach and experience with recovery that is not one-size-fits-all. Before booking, read bios for details about approach, session structure, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Addiction therapy in Cleveland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs after you enter your insurance details. From there, you can compare fit, choose in-person or virtual care, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
