About Ewa Godinez
Ewa Godinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings a focused, compassionate approach to mental health and addiction work in Colorado. She earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in addiction from the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in 2018, and combines that graduate training with credentials as a Licensed Addiction Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) indicates she completed graduate education and state licensure to provide professional counseling, while her addiction and national certifications reflect additional training in substance use treatment and professional standards.
Her clinical background spans community college counseling, private practice, correctional settings, inpatient hospitals, and detox facilities, working with people across the lifespan from teenagers to older adults. This range of experience informs a flexible practice that addresses stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting challenges, and issues related to identity and intimacy.
Her therapeutic stance is person-centered and existential, with practical, evidence-informed tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, along with mindfulness, motivational interviewing, reality therapy, and trauma-focused interventions. She is also EMDR trained. Ewa aims to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment while offering honest, empathetic feedback and gentle challenges intended to promote growth.
She frames change as both difficult and inevitable and emphasizes meeting clients where they are, helping them work through obstacles so they can move toward clearer values and more intentional living.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy and collaboration, offering a non-directive space where a therapist reflects and supports a person’s own insights and goals. This approach helps people exploring identity, relationships, and self-worth feel understood and guided rather than judged. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, skills-based approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for emotion regulation, relationship struggles, and coping with crises.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Ewa collaborates with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective. This collaborative process helps ensure the chosen tools fit the individual rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from familiar surroundings while working toward recovery and growth.
