Britney Goodgame

My communication style

I create a relaxed and casual environment, free of pretense and the need to act or behave a certain way. I want the real client and the real self. I enjoy humor and laughter, but also concern and healing, because I take mental health and growth extremely seriously and give it the due attention it deserves.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist has been a long one, but that has made it all the more worthwhile. I actually had a difficult experience with a therapist as a child, and at that point, I promised myself I would flip the script and become the type of therapist I wished I had. I wanted to display kindness, understanding, and compassion.

My goals for you

I set goals with clients by first looking at what motivates them. What makes them tick? What drives them? I want to see where they are now and where they want to be in life, and then how we can work to get there. I take a very direct and simple approach. You are at point A, you want to get to B—how can we make it happen?

Our first session

I start almost every intake by asking, "What makes you get out of bed in the morning and start your day?" I love it as an open-ended question, but it can say so much about a person, who they are, and what their goals are in life. From there, we explore what motivates you and what drives you forward.
