Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Have you ever felt like you were busy doing all the things you thought would bring you a happy life, yet felt alone and disconnected from yourself and others? These feelings are often when people turn to alcohol, drugs, food, shopping or relationships to try to create those feelings of happiness, contentment and joy. It can work for a short time however the key to moving forward is to understand the reasons we seek out these distractions. When we strengthen the relationship with ourselves, the outer world becomes much more balanced and fulfilling. In our work together, you’ll gain tools to care for your nervous system, set healthier boundaries, and create a more positive and sustainable way of living.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
You’ve spent years being the strong one—the helper, the steady presence, the one who keeps it together while carrying so much inside.
Lately, maybe your body feels tense, your heart heavy, and your relationships harder than they should be. You may long for rest, connection, or simply someone who truly understands.
Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about creating space to listen to the parts of you that have been silenced, to heal old wounds, and to finally feel safe being your fully authentic self.
If you’re ready to stop overextending, quiet the inner critic, and begin living with more ease and authenticity—I would be honored to walk alongside you.
🌿 Let’s start from the roots, and grow upward—together.
At our core, we are all motivated by a desire to connect—both with others and with ourselves in ways that feel honoring. But often, in our upbringing, we learned “rules” for connection that no longer serve us in our friendships, families, or intimate relationships. My work is about helping you recognize those patterns and move toward earned-secure attachment, so your connections can feel mutual, safe, and deeply nourishing.
If this resonates, I invite you to schedule a brief, complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. It’s a chance to see if my presence and approach might be the right support for your journey. You can schedule directly here: melanie-goetz.clientsecure.me

Erin Kennedy
Therapist, LPCC
I believe the human spirit is incredibly resilient and we all have the innate capacity to heal--I don't view mental health struggles as a sign of defect or "disorder," but rather a signal of unmet basic needs for love, attention, acceptance, and compassion.

Inner Compass Psychotherapy
Therapist, Group Practice | Clinical Director: Nora Katz, LCSW
Inner Compass Psychotherapy is a group practice of therapists in San Diego, led by our founder and clinical director, Nora Katz, LCSW. When you reach out, we listen first and then match you with the clinician on our team who fits what you need.
Many people who find us look fine from the outside. They are capable, busy, and good at taking care of everyone else, yet something underneath feels off: anxiety that will not settle, a low mood that lingers, a relationship stuck in the same argument, or a life change that has shaken the ground. We take the time to understand what is actually going on, not just the symptoms. Therapy here is collaborative and unhurried, and it should feel personal from the very first call.
Our team: Nora Katz, LCSW 112300, founder and clinical director; Karina Rivera, Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC 14780); Alyssa Zarske, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT 158291); and Nikki Adhami, Associate Clinical Social Worker (ASW 123351). Our associates are supervised by Nora Katz, LCSW 112300. Each of us has our own TherapyTribe profile if you would like to read more.

You keep it together for everyone else. But at 11:30 pm, the worry loops back. Sessions with me are slow, curious, and led by you. We follow what your feelings are pointing to, rather than rushing past them. Reach out for a free 15-minute call to see if we are a good fit.
