Clinical Psychologist & Psychotherapist

Professional Profile

I am a clinical psychologist and the founding President of the Association of Clinical Psychologists of Armenia. My work is dedicated to the systematic development of evidence-based psychological frameworks in Armenia, providing practitioners with the tools necessary for high-quality clinical care.

Clinical, Training & Supervisory Services

I maintain an active role in the Armenian psychological community through:

  • Professional Training: I conduct specialized training programs in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and behavioral science.

  • Clinical Supervision: I provide ongoing clinical supervision for mental health professionals, focusing on the practical application of functional contextualism and ACT protocols.

  • Psychotherapeutic Practice: I offer clinical consultations for a variety of conditions, including anxiety-phobic disorders, depression, and OCD.

Education and Specialized Training

My expertise is built upon two distinct yet complementary pillars:

  • Strategic Philosophy & Therapy: I am currently undergoing advanced specialization at the Centro di Terapia Strategica in Arezzo, Italy, under the guidance of Giorgio Nardone. This strategic approach informs my methodology for creating functional shifts in complex human problems.

  • Behavioral Science & RBT®: I am a certified Registered Behavior Technician (RBT®), with a strong foundation in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

  • Academic Background: I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy.

Theoretical Orientation

My practice integrates two major professional domains:

  1. Third Wave Behavioral Therapy: Rooted in Functional Contextualism, I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Clinical Behavioral Analysis, and Contextual Behavioral Science.

  2. Strategic Approach: Applying the specialized protocols of Strategic Brief Therapy to achieve efficient and lasting therapeutic change.

My goal is to foster a community of flexible and scientifically informed therapists in Armenia through continuous education and professional support.
