About Me

Hello!

My name is Lisa Godasi and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor with almost 20 years of experience. I specialize in marital therapy, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, substance abuse recovery, family systems, and trauma work. I received my BA in Psychology from the University of California, Santa Barbara, and my MS in Counseling from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I have spent the last twenty years serving adults, couples, children, and teens in a variety of settings, including Home-Based Family Preservation Services in Nevada, community mental health family services in Colorado, and outpatient private practice in Texas. My wealth and variety of experiences has enabled me to become a skilled clinician who is easy to relate to and build rapport with and one who is open and willing to take on any challenging situation.

I have a thirst for knowledge and enjoy continued training and learning in clinical areas of interest on a regular basis. I am always wanting to learn about new and exciting discoveries in the therapeutic world and how to apply them in clinical practice. I am skilled with the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, SMART Recovery, and the Gottman Method for rebuilding and strengthening relationships. I am solutions focused and interested in helping clients identify and learn coping and self-care skills that truly work! Once the skills are in place, I am able to help you to explore deeper issues that may continue to create barriers to a truly exceptional life. I look forward to working with you!

Lisa is by far the best therapist I've ever worked with. She's always there for me with some extremely valuable insight. She is equipped with many tools to meet the needs of any individual. I can't speak highly enough of her.

I feel as though Lisa is great with understanding the issues with more in depth understanding. She provides feedback and various ways to help a couple in need of relationship counseling!
