Mike Godby

My communication style

My communication style is direct yet compassionate. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. I balance active listening with honest feedback and practical tools, offering both support and challenge to encourage meaningful change.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I've always been drawn to helping others. Growing up with an older brother with disabilities, I saw how important support can be. I spent years trying to be who I thought I should be, only to realize real healing comes from embracing who you are. Now, I help others reconnect with themselves.

My goals for you

I take a collaborative approach to goal setting, ensuring you feel ownership of your therapeutic journey. We begin by exploring your concerns and desired outcomes, then create personalized, achievable goals that support your growth. As therapy progresses, we revisit and adjust goals to stay aligned with your evolving needs.

Our first session

In our first session, I provide a welcoming space for you to share what brought you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. We'll explore your concerns, discuss your background, and begin building a path toward healing. I'll answer any questions you have, and we'll start creating a foundation for our work together.
