About Bernetta
With seven years of clinical experience, Bernetta adapts discussions and plans to each person she sees. She tailors sessions to address trauma, grief, mood shifts, ADHD-related struggles, and challenges like impulsivity and finding life purpose. She also pays attention to multicultural concerns and issues that commonly affect women.
Her work draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means sessions center on the person's priorities while also looking at thinking patterns and behaviors that get in the way. The aim is to build clearer coping skills and more steady mood management.
People meet Bernetta to talk through panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and persistent worry. She also supports those wrestling with forgiveness, self-love, and changes in life direction. Conversations tend to be practical, with tools you can try between meetings.
Bernetta holds LPC and LCMHC credentials and practices in North Carolina. She meets people where they are and helps them make steady, realistic progress toward the goals they name.

How client-centered and CBT methods translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead, which helps the therapist understand what matters most to you and shape sessions around those goals. This approach is useful for building trust, addressing self-esteem, and finding direction when life feels uncertain.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. It breaks problems into manageable steps and gives practical exercises to try between meetings, which can help with anxiety, panic, anger, and mood swings.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That process may include mixing client-centered listening with targeted CBT tools to create a plan that makes sense for daily life.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for timing, length, and how to practice skills between appointments.
