Victoria Bergstrom, M.A

Resident in Counseling

My journey to counseling has been shaped by a desire to help people who feel hopeless or overlooked find healing, support, hope, identity, and purpose. Before entering the counseling field, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Business Information Technology from Virginia Tech in 2016 and worked in federal contracting. I then had an encounter with God that changed the direction of my life forever. I experienced my own freedom and deliverance and felt led by God to bring that same hope to others through inner healing, deliverance, pastoral counseling, and spiritual guidance.

After a few years, God placed it on my heart to pursue a career as a counselor. I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Regent University in May 2026. Throughout this process, I learned the importance of meeting people where they are, taking the time to listen to their stories, and being present with them through difficult seasons.

My Approach

My approach to counseling is tailored to your individual needs. I draw interventions from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I believe counseling is a collaborative process, and I strive to create a safe and caring environment where you can be honest about your experiences, explore the patterns that may be affecting your life, and work toward meaningful change.

As a Christian counselor, I am passionate about integrating faith and spirituality into the counseling process when desired by the client. I have completed training in inner healing and deliverance counseling and prayer through Invictia University, and I am also an ordained minister.

My Areas of Focus

I work with adult individuals, children, teens, couples, and families, and am passionate about helping clients work through:

Healing from childhood and complex trauma
Understanding dissociation and feeling disconnected from yourself
Depression
Anxiety
Spiritual concerns and spiritual abuse
Shame, self-worth, and identity
Life transitions and personal challenges
Developing a deeper understanding of yourself
Learning to recognize and regulate difficult emotions
Understanding how past experiences continue to affect present relationships

My Mission

My mission is to provide a safe and caring environment where you are encouraged to pursue healing through the challenges that may have left you feeling stuck, unloved, or abandoned. My hope is that you leave counseling with a greater sense of identity, wholeness, and confidence to live the life you envision.

You do not have to navigate your journey alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you pursue healing, growth, hope, and a deeper understanding of who you are.
