Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m Elaine Godoy, LMFT. I specialize in LGBTQ+ populations, grief, and relationship trauma. My professional and personal experience has helped me to connect with others from unique situations. Whether you are part of the LGBTQ community, experiencing challenges in your relationships, or have experienced a recent loss, I can help you. I know you’re tired of struggling, I know it’s exhausting to pretend that everything is ok. Let’s chat.

My approach to therapy

I take a down to earth and welcoming approach with all my clients. More than anything, I want all clients to feel safe and comfortable during their time with me. I am open minded and take a collaborative approach to treatment.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to gain better understanding of themselves and their situations. With this information, clients learn valuable tools to help them overcome barriers that seem to keep coming back.
