About

Susan Goodell is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing at 1500 Camino Del Mar in Del Mar, CA 92014, bringing a uniquely layered career to her clinical work that began in the classroom, evolved through school guidance counseling, and culminated in a private psychotherapy practice. Goodell holds the MA, MS, and MFT credentials and is a Certified EMDR Clinician and Approved Consultant in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a trauma-focused therapy method backed by extensive clinical research. The 1500 Camino Del Mar address places her office along the village's main thoroughfare, within walking distance of the Del Mar Powerhouse Community Center and the bluffs overlooking the ocean. She also serves as a staff Facilitator at EMDR trainings and previously volunteered for several years as the San Diego County EMDR International Association Regional Coordinator. Her current community role includes coordinating the San Diego Trauma Recovery Network, an initiative that deploys trained EMDR clinicians to assist in the aftermath of critical incidents and natural disasters. Goodell's clinical experience spans work with children, adolescents, and families, drawing from her earlier career as a teacher and school counselor where she developed programs around self-esteem, intergroup relations, conflict resolution, and playground peace patrols. Her therapeutic approach incorporates multiple psychotherapeutic modalities, though EMDR remains central to her practice given the profound changes she has witnessed clients experience through the method. Individuals in the Del Mar area exploring whether EMDR might complement other therapeutic approaches can also consult with Dr. Brian Alman, another established mental health professional in the 92014 ZIP code who offers alternative and integrative methods. Wheelchair-accessible parking is available at the Camino Del Mar location.
