About Geraldine
Geraldine (Geri) Godbolt is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who brings eight years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on helping people sort through pressing concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and stress. Geri aims to listen first and build goals together so clients feel heard and understood.
She takes a practical, step-by-step approach when multiple problems appear at once. That can mean addressing depression and substance use together, or working on anxiety while also building coping skills for grief or caregiver stress.
Background and approach
Sessions often include short exercises, reflection, and occasional homework to keep momentum between meetings. Geri draws on Existential therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). She adapts these approaches to fit what each person needs rather than using the same plan for everyone.
Her goal is to help clients use their strengths to create clearer, more workable daily routines and relationships. Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She also has a graduate certificate in trauma and has worked as a lead clinician at a residential program supporting people experiencing homelessness.
That hands-on experience guides her practical style in session. Geri offers online care and supports people who want to work on issues like self-esteem, ADHD, anger, gender dysphoria, and compassion fatigue. She emphasizes steady progress and revisits goals regularly so treatment stays aligned with what each person wants.

Online support
Therapy approaches and online care that fit your life
Existential therapy helps people face difficult questions about meaning, choice, and identity. It encourages honest reflection and supports people who feel stuck, empty, or adrift as they consider new ways to live. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance of hard feelings with clear values-driven actions; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing strong urges or cravings. Client-Centered therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience, with the therapist offering empathy and careful listening to help clients find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and daily life. That might mean blending existential questions with ACT exercises, or using CBT-style tools for practical symptom relief while keeping the person’s broader values in view.
Online therapy makes that collaborative work easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared worksheets. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging support short updates, coaching-style moments, or ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats offer flexibility so people can stay consistent with care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
