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

Wilson Ho Yin Cheh
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Licensed Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
I am a unique "left & right" brain therapist with multiple clinical licenses and specialties that allows me to provide effective, high impact, and outcome focused services to my clients. As a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), I offer counseling to individuals, couples, and families. As a licensed professional counselor (LPCC), I can offer additional service scope extending to career counseling. As a licensed advance alcohol and drug counselor (LAADC) & master addiction counselor (MAC), I have deep understanding of how various forms of addictions and trauma (including screen addictions) affects individuals & relationships. Besides being a therapist, I have backgrounds in engineering, organizational leadership, higher education, and business development in Silicon Valley. I enjoy connecting with my clients at where they are at, establishing a safe and strength-based experience as we explore issues set goals, and move forward. I also enjoy helping young adults, adults, and couples to navigate through tough seasons of feeling overwhelming, experiencing loss in transitions, and dealing with painful and complex circumstances. My brief strategy approaches and tech background also fits well with those who are in high stress careers and in leadership roles. Email or call me today to schedule a FREE 15min consultation for more information.

Peter Cellarius
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, SEP, EFT, EFIT
I left a successful career as a high tech executive because I knew there was more to life than money. I saw hurt and pain and I wanted to help. Whether you are encountering challenges in your relationship or dealing with anxiety, stress, or depression – there is still hope. We can work together. You don’t have to encounter it alone.

New Beginnings Counseling Center (NBCC)
Pre-Licensed Professional
At New Beginnings Counseling Center's (NBCC) Donald J. Willfong Community Counseling Center, we are deeply committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges with compassionate, accessible, and culturally attuned mental health care. For over 50 years, our nonprofit clinic has been a cornerstone of the Santa Barbara community, offering confidential counseling and therapeutic services that empower people to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Our diverse team of masters- and doctoral-level counselors — supported by experienced clinical supervisors — provides evidence-informed therapy in a traineeship setting, helping clients explore life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, compulsive behaviors, substance use challenges, stress, anger management, isolation, and more. We offer individual, couples, family, and group counseling, available both in person and through telehealth to meet the varied needs of our community.
We believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of financial means. That’s why we provide one of the most affordable sliding-scale fee structures in the region — many clients pay less than $15 per session — and we never turn anyone away due to inability to pay. Counseling is available in both English and Spanish.
In addition to our clinical services, New Beginnings is dedicated to fostering community well-being through training the next generation of clinicians, integrating trauma-informed practices, and ensuring that our services are responsive, respectful, and strength-based. Our mission is to help individuals not just cope, but truly thrive, by supporting their emotional growth, resilience, and overall wellness.
We warmly welcome you to begin your journey toward healing and self-discovery with us.
