Hello, my name is Camilla Black I am a North Carolina Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I am originally from New Jersey. I am passionate about working with college students because I had the best college counselor. He treated me like I mattered and he believed in me. He also treated me like an adult by keeping me accountable for my academics without adding extra pressure. I wanted to give that to other students therefore I loved working in Higher Education and with college students. I want to do that for you if you let me.

Everyone can benefit from therapy. How often in your day to day do you have an hour where you’re fully seen, heard, and encouraged? That’s what therapy should provide. Too often therapy is misrepresented and clients stigmatized as weak or ill when, in fact, the strongest thing you can do is seek help. Let me help you through your darkest of times or your day to day concerns. There is no issue too big or too small to conquer. I believe everyone has the capacity for self-healing and change and that my role as a counselor is to support clients on their journey towards healing. I'm passionate about helping others through the daily challenges of life and trauma. With special consideration of how power, oppression, and the collective unconscious affect our individual well-being. As a black queer Liberian-American woman I draw from my personal cultural background to encourage clients to embrace and reconcile their own identities and experiences as they heal.

Welcome to Breyta Psychological Services! At Breyta, we are trauma specialists committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care to help you navigate life’s challenges. While trauma-informed care is critical for those with PTSD, it’s also essential for anyone facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or other struggles. Understanding how stress and life experiences impact mental health can create a foundation for healing and meaningful growth. Our team of licensed psychologists offers individual therapy, couples therapy, and psychological assessment services to college students and young adults. Whether you’re managing academic stress, adjusting to new life transitions, or working through deeper emotional challenges, we are here to support you. Why Trauma-Informed Care Matters: Even if you don’t identify as having PTSD, a trauma-informed approach ensures your care is sensitive to how past experiences shape your current struggles. By addressing the root causes of emotional pain, we help you build resilience, develop healthier patterns, and move forward with confidence and clarity. What We Offer: Individual Therapy: We provide support for depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, adjustment difficulties, relationship issues, sleep concerns, grief, chronic conditions, and burnout. Couples Therapy: Strengthen your relationship, improve communication, and address challenges with the guidance of our skilled therapists. Psychological Assessment: Gain clarity through comprehensive assessments for mental health concerns. Why Choose Breyta? Specialized Expertise: Our clinicians are highly trained in trauma-informed care, using approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based methods. Culturally Responsive Care: We provide affirming support for students of all backgrounds, including first-generation college students, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those navigating dual identities. Flexible Services: With in-person and telehealth options, we meet you where you are—both physically and emotionally. Take the First Step Toward Thriving: At Breyta Psychological Services, we believe that change is possible, and we are here to guide you every step of the way.

People seek counseling for many reasons. Regardless of your reason, it is a brave and vulnerable step to take and I’m glad you’re here. My role is to assist you in reaching the goals you have for yourself by providing safe and non-judgmental support, and helping you to exercise your own strengths, rather than to give you advice. Until recently, I was a mental health counselor on a small college campus. I have worked with many college students on diverse issues such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and stress, and I understand the challenges of grappling with these issues while also trying to succeed in college. Let's talk!

My name is Jessie and I have been working with children, teens, and adults in goal-directed, individual therapy for over 10 years. I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, and trauma and I have been trained in TF-CBT (trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy) and DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy). I utilize many modalities in my treatment but have most experience with mindfulness, CBT, DBT, and goal-directed/solution-focused therapy. I happily incorporate different approaches in my therapy style to best support you. I enjoy helping individuals change their cognitions to function in a healthier way. I balance listening, understanding, and questioning to help you find your best solution. I utilize education to help the client gain insight about potential changes to improve daily life, relationships, emotional control, and (most importantly): happiness. I am open to feedback and believe that therapy is client directed. My preference is for continual goal evaluation to measure successes and define challenges. I provide a safe and understanding place for clients to explore and express themselves. I look forward to helping you define and achieve your goals.

Do you ever feel that you have too much on your plate or that your emotions overwhelm you? It can feel like there is no way to escape these feelings, and that there is no way to change. It can be hard to go through these issues on your own, but therapy can be a space where these issues can be addressed. It can provide you the opportunity to explore who you are and make the changes that you want to see in your life. In therapy we will address the issue that you see as obstacles from achieving your goals and having a better understanding of yourself.

Welcome, and thank you for considering me as a therapist to partner with you on your therapy journey! Taking the first steps to change your life can be challenging and, at times, a bit scary. I can relate to and understand how taking those initial steps to start a new journey can be uncomfortable. I strive to provide a warm, safe, and nonjudgemental environment where clients can feel comfortable working towards their goals utilizing tailored therapeutic techniques. Therapy is a partnership between the therapist and the client to work towards creating positive changes that one would like to focus on in their life. I have twenty-five years of experience working with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families to address relationship issues, anxiety, depression, women's issues, grief, ADHD, and life transitions. With the proper support, I feel anyone can make advancements toward their goals. I look forward to the opportunity to partner with you on your journey of growth! Christine
