About me

"Normal is just a setting on the dryer."-Adair Lara

Life isn't easy sometimes and I understand. We all go through trials and tribulations in life even though some of these may not seem like they are ever going to end. Many people avoid therapy because they don't want to feel "crazy" or be labeled for reaching out for help however this isn't the case. We all need help getting through our problems at times. I suggest every single person engage in therapy sometime in their life, it's good for the soul!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and an Internationally Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I have worked in a variety of settings to include both mental health and addiction treatment facilities. I have over 15 years experience in the counseling field addressing depression, anxiety, anger, trauma/abuse and addiction. I am also very comfortable providing crisis interventions to those that may be experiencing immediate distress. I also have an extensive history working with family members of clients that have been diagnosed with Schizophrenia and Bipolar disorder. I focus on how a person is feeling and functioning not on the label that may have been given to them. There is such a stigma attached to mental health symptoms so I believe that focusing on the present gets the best results. I'll work with you to find solutions to the problems you may be experiencing and explore how thought patterns may be contributing to them. I like to laugh and incorporate the use of humor in my sessions. I love animals and enjoy hearing stories from clients about how they can brighten ones day!

I have a very flexible schedule and am available on nights/weekends. I look forward to getting to know your story and helping you to feel better day by day!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kassi Goodman. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Kassi Goodman is wonderful. I haven't been working with her long, we have only had one live session so far which helped me more than I imagined it could as my first time working with a counselor. We were scheduled for an hour and ended up going well beyond this, she didn't rush me and really allowed me to get all of my thoughts out while providing honest and professional feedback. Things that I really needed to hear. Otherwise, we have mostly communicated through messaging. She has sent me a few articles related to some of the hurdles I am facing that were thoughtful and relative to what I am going through. Additionally, she checks in if she hasn't heard from me in a while. I will definitely continue to work with her!
