read moreIndividual therapy, counseling, or psychotherapy involves meeting with the therapist one-on-one. Some reasons you may seek individual therapy may include feelings of being trapped, distressed, or alone, constant worry, crisis/transition, depression, anxiety, recent divorce, low self-worth, body-image issues, past or present trauma, and lack of motivation or ability to change. If family members and friends cannot help you find the answers or these feelings are affecting your job, relationships, sleep, or eating habits, it may be time to seek help from a professional. The goal of psychotherapy is to enhance self-awareness, empower the client, work towards desired change, and work through challenging life issues. There's hope, we believe in you, and you deserve to be happy.Couples Therapy & Marriage Counseling

Sean is absolutely an amazing therapist. He has literally saved my life. I was going through one of the worst life experiences one can go through and he not only help me get through that, but enabled me to be 10 times better than I was I highly recommend Sean.

Some people are just born to be therapists. Their spirit and demeanor makes people feel safe and heard, and somehow they just always know the right thing to say. This is Eli in a nutshell. I've never met such a naturally gifted counselor. And when you combine that with years of spiritual soul-searching and therapeutic training, you've got someone truly special. This is why Eli is at the top of my list for recommendation for a therapist. And as a therapist myself, I don't take this lightly. I'd trust him with my friends and family.

I have been working with Eli for the last 5 months. This was also my first attempt at therapy. I knew not what to expect both in process and results. I am very happy I decided to go with Eli at Good Therapy. Eli is a fantastic therapist. He knows when to listen, when to offer suggestions, and asks questions that help guide my mental health in positive ways. Eli is about half my age chronologically, but twice my age spiritually and mentally.
This makes a perfect match; I leave every session feeling uplifted, grounded, and more aware of the what's, why's and how's of my thought processes. These are the very things that brought me to therapy in the first place! Life can suck, but it can suck less if you get the help you need. Eli and Good Therapy are a great solution to dealing with the day-to-day static of life. 5 stars.

My 7 year old son has been treating with Sean in Encinitas for almost a year for anxiety. Sean was able to immediately relate to my son, assess the situation, and make a strong connection with him. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing that Sean is someone my son can talk to about his feelings especially since the pandemic began and everyone's lives got turned upside down. Sean is engaging, energetic, dynamic, positive, and frankly just a wonderful person.
He is also a great communicator and makes sure everyone is always on the same page with treatment. I feel really fortunate to have found Sean for my son and am very grateful to GTSD.

So so happy that I was connected with Ashley Fecteau at Good Therapy San Diego. I finally found the right fit in a therapist when I met Ashley. She listens so sincerely and has helped me so much in dealing with my personal issues stemming mainly from my chronic illnesses.

My time as an employee at Good Therapy, while short, was nothing but incredibly positive. I was welcomed into the Good Therapy "Family" immediately by Katie and her lovely husband Adam. One thing that stood out the most was the high quality of care they stood behind. The warmth and professionalism was palpable and I feel so lucky to have been a member of the GTSD crew! I miss you all already and wish nothing but the best for all of you moving forward! XX

As a former therapist at Good Therapy San Diego I can only speak highly of my experience there. Katie has created a wonderful team of well trained and experienced clinicians. She has also created a space that feels warm and comfortable. Many of the clients I worked with often complimented the decor and calmness of the space. The other clinicians are genuine, empathic, and have a passion for helping people heal. I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to work for and with such a talented group of clinicians and a well rounded practice.

Katie has been a true blessing. Therapy is not something I dread anymore, I look forward to it weekly. Therapy with Katie is result driven with a thoughtful manner.

Good Therapy set me up with my therapist, Heather, and she is the best. When I contacted Good Therapy, they had a quick response and I felt like they really wanted to help me out- I was set up with an appointment the next day! I remember being extremely grateful for the next day availability (I was/am going through many mid-20's hardships and was feeling pretty desperate).
I am so happy I was placed with Heather. She listens to all my crazy thoughts and is my unbiased cheerleader. I trust she has my best interest in mind, and even when I am stubborn and don't like what she has to say, I've gotta admit that she is usually right. Are you going through an identity crisis? Heather's got you.

I'm really glad and grateful that my sister found Katie Brooks by Google search! I was at the lowest point in my life, and going to Katie for counseling was the best thing I have ever done for my health. After struggling for a year with depression, I got out of it in a couple of weeks with weekly sessions. I have regained previous passions that I forgot about the past year, and I feel like my life is back on track.
I am HAPPY again! Katie truly listens to what you have to say and will only give reasonable, logical, and helpful advice to any of your concerns. I could tell her anything without feeling judged, and only positive things came out of trusting her as my counselor. Her positive demeanor only gave me hope and actually rubbed off on me! I would refer her to anyone that needs someone to talk to about something they are struggling with, etc. She's amazing!
