About Betsy
Betsy Godoy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 12 years of professional therapy experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, family conflict, parenting concerns, and related struggles. Betsy also supports clients dealing with depression, bipolar symptoms, addiction issues, grief, and challenges like sleep and eating difficulties.
She approaches sessions from a client-centered perspective that treats the person as the expert in their own life. Conversations focus on clear goals and practical steps. Betsy draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns, and she uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Betsy uses mindfulness practices to bring attention into the present moment. For trauma work she may incorporate eye movement desensitization and reprocessing when appropriate. Her work includes attention to parenting stress, caregiving burdens, and communication problems within families.
She has experience supporting people navigating divorce and separation, adoption and foster care issues, and first responder stress. Betsy also addresses topics such as forgiveness, guilt and shame, and intimacy-related concerns. Her approach emphasizes practical change over long theory-based explanations.
Sessions can be conducted in English or Spanish. Getting started involves completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns and emotional bonds. Online sessions can be used to notice how these patterns show up in everyday life and to practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on clear links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses short practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Online meetings can be used to review these exercises and set small experiments between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals and pick methods that fit those goals and the client’s preferences. That process may involve trying a few techniques and adjusting the plan based on what helps.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, meeting online can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let a person use phone or lower-bandwidth options if video is difficult. Licensed professionals adapt exercises and mindfulness practices so they work in the client’s everyday setting rather than only in the therapy room.
