About Ewa
Ewa Godinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs in 2018 and has worked in college settings, private practice, prison, inpatient hospital, and detox facilities.
Ewa focuses on common young adult concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, identity questions, school and career pressures, and substance use. She also supports people facing trauma, grief, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions. Her experience includes work with a wide age range of clients in varied clinical settings.
Her style is direct and person-focused. Sessions tend to combine person-centered listening with clear, practical tools. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to help with emotional regulation and thinking patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas and existential questions come into play for relationship and meaning issues.
Ewa also draws on mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to help people set reachable goals. Her background in addiction work informs how she approaches substance concerns and recovery-related issues. She aims to offer straightforward feedback and occasional challenges to encourage change.
For someone in early adulthood feeling stuck or overwhelmed, she helps break problems into manageable steps. The first part of getting started is completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session so goals and next steps can be set together.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and helping the client lead the conversation. It helps people clarify values, make choices, and feel heard when sorting through life changes and identity questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits that reduce anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide whether skill-building, exploration of meaning, or a mix of methods will best meet their goals. That collaboration continues as goals shift and new priorities emerge.
Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and cut travel time, which helps fit sessions around classes, shifts, or other commitments. Some methods, like short skills practice or brief cognitive exercises, adapt well to remote sessions, while deeper attachment or emotion-focused work can also be done when both therapist and client agree on the plan. Licensed professionals generally tailor pacing and homework to fit day-to-day routines so therapy fits into real life rather than disrupting it.
