About Peter
Peter Godfrey is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people move through intense feelings and difficult life shifts. He has worked as an LCSW since 2015 and brings a steady, straightforward manner to sessions. He meets people where they are and helps them take practical steps forward.
In sessions he treats problems like addiction, depression, anxiety, and anger. He also works with issues such as trauma and post-traumatic stress, grief, and stress from major life changes.
Background and approach
He helps people manage impulsivity, panic attacks, and problems tied to relationships and family dynamics. His approach combines several practical therapies so people can find what fits them. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take workable steps.

Peter believes clients are the experts in their own lives and that therapy is a collaborative effort. Sessions aim to identify strengths, practice new skills, and make steady changes that matter day to day.
He encourages honest talk and small goals that add up. Peter has ten years of experience and practices in North Carolina as an LCSW. He offers services in English and accepts international clients.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters most to them. It focuses on small, values-driven steps rather than trying to eliminate emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on practical changes in thought and behavior patterns and is useful for anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsivity, and improving distress tolerance.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Sessions can be adjusted over time based on what is helpful, with the client and therapist checking in about progress and next steps.
The therapist's biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let them practice skills in their everyday settings. If technology or pacing is a concern, these details can be worked out when scheduling so sessions match daily routines and needs.
