Catecia Godbee, LCSW — Therapist in Georgia

Hi there, I'm Catecia!

I am versed in many therapy approaches. I absolutely believe that properly assessing the client will lead to the appropriate and most effective therapy to provide to each individual. My focus areas are depression, anxiety, and life transitions related to dealing with a new medical diagnosis, particularly cancer.

My focus

I work with clients with anxiety and depression. I am comfortable with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and emotions related to life transitions.

My approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

My communication style

I seek to create a welcoming and safe environment for my clients. My tone is always professional, non-confrontational, and empathic.

My journey to mental healthcare

I feel that our field is sometimes underrated and misunderstood. Becoming a therapist was so important to me because my research of the profession made me want to be that person for others. My passion, dedication, and understanding drive me to do this work.

My goals for you

I address the importance of goal setting during the initial encounter.

Our first session

My client should expect a professional and welcoming introduction. A time set for us both to build rapport and gather information to get started.
