Peter Godfrey, LCSW

Peter Godfrey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with ten years of clinical experience. He works with people who are facing addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes. He also addresses anxiety, ADHD, stress, grief, eating concerns, mood challenges, and issues tied to relationships and identity.

Peter centers sessions on the client's own knowledge of their life. He treats clients as the expert on their story and looks for strengths to build on. Conversations are straightforward. He helps people sort what matters now and what steps feel manageable.

In practice he draws on several therapy styles that match different problems. He uses cognitive behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. He works from an attachment perspective when relationship pain or past betrayal affects current trust and closeness.

Peter also incorporates acceptance and commitment approaches to help people clarify values and take action even when feelings are painful. Dialectical behavior ideas are used when emotion regulation and impulsivity are central concerns. Client-centered methods guide the pace and focus of sessions.

Over ten years he has supported people dealing with abandonment, divorce and separation, family problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and difficulties such as panic attacks and post-traumatic stress. He offers practical skills and coaching alongside traditional talk therapy.

Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session options and the process for getting started.
