Miss Alicia Godinez

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

“As a behavioural and mental health therapist, I have a passion for working with individuals, couples, and families who may be going through a difficult season, experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, loss, communication issues, family conflict, and personal growth. My style is warm and compassionate.”

About Me

I guide individuals, couples, and families through challenging times. Perhaps you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, or communication issues. My warm, compassionate style offers a safe space to gently explore these concerns. We can work together to foster personal growth and find clearer paths forward. I aim to provide a supportive environment for you to unpack complex emotions.

Approach

When seasons shift and relationships strain, I stay close to what feels most urgent for you and help map a clear, steady path forward. In my Phoenix office or through online sessions in English or Spanish, we move at a pace that fits your rhythm—sometimes practical skill-building, sometimes deeper memory-focused work, and often time spent repairing patterns that keep repeating. Sessions are collaborative and grounded, with gentle check-ins between meetings when helpful. People juggling loss, anxiety, or big transitions often find this steady, relational approach useful.
