Ewa Godinez, LPC - Therapist in Colorado

About Ewa

Ewa Godinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with five years of clinical work. She earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs in 2018. Ewa brings focused experience with addiction and trauma along with broader concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting.

She uses practical tools so parents and adults can start making small changes right away.

Background and approach

Her style is direct and warm. Ewa aims to create a calm, non-judgmental space where people can talk honestly about hard things. She listens closely and offers clear, concrete strategies rather than abstract theory.

She also leans on her training in trauma work, including EMDR, when trauma is part of the story. Ewa draws from several approaches to fit a person's needs. She uses client-centered listening to understand each person's values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy supports emotion regulation and coping skills when feelings feel overwhelming. She believes change often comes through small, steady steps and realistic experiments.

Ewa encourages facing difficult emotions while learning skills to manage them. Parents and individuals who want a collaborative, practical therapist may find her straightforward, compassionate approach helpful. Her background includes work in community college settings, independent practice, prisons, inpatient hospitals, and detox facilities.

That range informs how she supports people through life transitions, grief, substance concerns, relationship struggles, and parenting challenges.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance. The therapist offers empathy and helps people clarify what matters to them, which can help with self-esteem, life direction, and parenting choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In sessions the therapist helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tests new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It can be helpful when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationship and coping problems are present.

Ewa will work collaboratively to find the right mix of approaches for each person. Early sessions focus on goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She adjusts methods as progress and needs become clearer, and she involves the client in those decisions.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people talk face-to-face from home, phone sessions offer an audio option, and live chat or text messaging suits quick check-ins or those who prefer written conversation. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family and work schedules and to maintain continuity during life transitions.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
