I understand and respect the courage it takes to talk with someone about personal and sometimes uncomfortable topics. It is my goal to assist a client in achieving overall wellness, which I believe is key to long term happiness. If you are motivated for change in your life but not sure how to achieve that change, I would love to assist you on that journey to positive change. I believe that the relationship between the therapist and client is primary to change and see myself as your partner in the process.
As a certified first responder counselor I feel that I have the privilege to work with responders who have served and continue to serve our community. I see my role in working with responders as a small way of giving back to them for that service.

Donna Goodman, APRN, PMHNP
​
Hello, my name is Donna Goodman. I am a native of Grayson County, Kentucky, but currently live in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. I am married and have 4 adult children and 3 fur babies. I have been a registered nurse for over 30 years. After deciding to continue my education in 2013, I started my journey in graduate school. I practiced as a family nurse practitioner for about 3 years before feeling in my heart I was being drawn towards mental health treatment. I enrolled in the psychiatric nurse practitioner program at my alma mater, Frontier Nursing University. I have been practicing as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner since 2019.
My faith in God has always allowed me to believe He places us where we are needed. I know mental health issues are stigmatized and it has always been my goal to help each and every patient understand, I am not here to judge, just to help someone reach a better place. We all have times when we need the help of others, and if I can offer that help then I have been successful.

As therapists, it is a great responsibility when someone make themselves vulnerable and discloses their deepest thoughts, emotions, and fears. I hope I have always received each individual's story with grace and compassion. I look forward to connecting with you".
