Ana Godoy

Ana Godoy

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hello. My name is Ana and I am a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (128445), in the beautiful state of California. I have been in the counseling and social work field for 25+ yrs. Simply stated, I was born to do therapy, it is a gift and an honor. I am a safe, trusting and caring person, that is able to connect with a diversity of people. I have worked with children, teens, elderly, foster care, gang members and most recently, death row inmates in prison.

I have found, through many of those experiences that emotional pain, feeling alone and experiencing anxiety or depression, is common even amongst many variables. I know that the desire to live a deeper, peaceful and meaningful life can also be a motivating and driving force. I too have done much of that internal work and reflection in my life. I have learned that it is OK to be just me without pressure, more compassion and living the authentic life I deserve. I would love the same for you.
