Ewa Godinez

Ewa Godinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings five years of clinical work to Colorado clients. She earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in 2018, with an emphasis in addiction. Ewa emphasizes a warm, direct style and aims to help people move through hard moments toward clearer choices and better daily functioning.

Ewa offers a calm, person-centered approach and pairs that with practical tools. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and build new coping skills. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused and Existential ideas to help people clarify values and deepen emotional understanding.

Her background includes work in community colleges, private practice, inpatient settings, prison, and detox facilities. That range informs how she supports people facing addiction, trauma, grief, anger, anxiety, and relationship or family concerns. Ewa has experience helping with parenting strain, career changes, compassion fatigue, and issues like codependency and attachment wounds.

In sessions she is honest and relatable. She will encourage and challenge clients to try new behaviors and tolerates the discomfort that comes with change. Her approach blends mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused steps to keep work concrete and doable.

People who want straightforward guidance and a therapist who walks alongside them may find her style helpful. To begin, clients will use the platform Start Therapy flow to match and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting people where they are and helping them feel understood, which can make it easier to open up about difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication to help manage intense reactions like anger.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client's goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting over time as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shortening commute time, scheduling a check-in during a work break, or avoiding travel to an office. It can also let people try a few sessions to see if the therapist's style feels like a good fit. Licensed professionals will help plan the logistics once a match is made.
