The Expert
Vanessa H. Roddenberry, Ph.D.
Dr. Vanessa Roddenberry is a clinical psychologist and the founder of Breyta Psychological Services, a trauma specialty clinic in North Raleigh, NC. Breyta is founded on the principle that trauma-informed care is important, even if you don't have PTSD. Trauma is pervasive. It's likely that you have already experienced something in your life that affected you deeply; the way you think, feel, and relate to others. Often the impact of our experiences becomes most clear when we glimpse our own functioning through the eyes of our children. The process of becoming a parent is powerful in so many ways, but often it can inspire us to face things so that we can be stronger in the future. That's where we can offer support.
At Breyta, we understand the unique challenges and pressures faced by mothers navigating their own healing journeys. Our clinic serves as a nurturing space where science and compassion meet, offering care that deeply resonates with the maternal experience. With a dedicated team of doctoral-level, trauma-informed psychologists, we specialize in advanced, evidence-based therapies. These are designed not just to address trauma but to fit the complex lives of moms — recognizing the strength it takes to seek healing not only for oneself but often with the wellbeing of a family in mind.
Dr. Roddenberry and our empathetic team are committed to guiding you through a process of meaningful change, grounded in the latest research and a deep understanding of the maternal psyche. We recognize the impact of trauma extends beyond the individual, touching on family dynamics and parenting experiences. It's why our approach is both personalized and holistic, focusing on empowering you with strategies and insights that enhance resilience and joy in motherhood and beyond.
Here, you're not just seen as a client but as a whole person — someone with dreams, challenges, and the capacity for incredible growth. We're here to ask the right questions, to unlock pathways to healing that respect your role as a caregiver and an individual. Join us at Breyta, where we're dedicated to supporting your journey towards a more fulfilling life, affirming that caring for yourself is one of the greatest gifts you can offer your family.
