More about Chris

  • 16 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

My initial training as a therapist was in premarital and marriage counseling, a vital part of my practice that to this day I enjoy very much. I have approximately 20 years of experience and am licensed in the state of Texas. In addition to counseling couples, I have also worked with persons coming out of the sex industry. It is my passion to work with those who struggle with severe trauma and emotional abuse, as well as major depressive disorders, bipolar I & II, schizoaffective, co-occurring and substance abuse disorders. I have a great deal of experience working with dissociative, borderline and personality disorders. I am well-versed and extremely comfortable working with persons of different cultures.

My motto is, “reveal the root, expose the lie and heal the wounded spirit.” I utilize a trauma-informed, person-centered, psychodynamic approach in therapy and often incorporate CBT, DBT and mindfulness techniques. I strive to meet the unique and individual needs of each client and adjust my approach accordingly. I am a certified revisioning practitioner, a technique that simulates re-attachment for grief resolution and ego-integration and am certified by the FBI National Academy in resiliency training. I also enjoy training local police departments throughout the Metroplex in critical incident and mental health orientation trainings.

I truly consider it an honor and a privilege to partner with you in your journey towards wholeness. My goal is to help you become all that you were created to be!

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I started better help about 2 or 3 weeks ago, and let me tell you it was the best decision I have made in a long time. My counselor is Chris Goetz, and she is one amazing lady. She gets me. There's no doubt about the professionalism that she expresses in our session. She is always eager to share podcasts or papers with me on some of my issues. I'm not ever going back to a live counseling session. I'm staying right here....thanks Better help

Chris has an amazing way of connecting and helps me tune in to myself. We are working on building on my intention into actually doing the work. Reflection and allowing those emotions that have been latent throughout the years. To become tended. Spending the time in therapy with Chris has helped me to really connect to the parts of me that have been a long time calling and in 2021 unexpectedly began bubbling up in sobs Tendring these parts of me in therapy has helped me tremendously.
