Marni Goldberg, a dual-licensed LMFT and LPCC with an Education Specialist degree, founded Mindful Matters Counseling in 2010 after a decade of clinical work in hospitals, schools, and community agencies. Her office at 2180 Garnet Ave, Suite 3G in Pacific Beach, 92109 is a women-owned practice focused on teens, young adults, families, and highly sensitive people navigating anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Clients working on stress reduction between sessions sometimes attend classes at Sōma Yoga Studio, located elsewhere in Pacific Beach, to deepen their mindfulness practice. Goldberg's path to licensure in California was notably rigorous, requiring three professional degrees and approximately 7,000 supervised clinical hours before earning both her LMFT credential and her LPCC through the state's grandfathering process when California became the last state to license professional counselors. She was profiled by SD Voyager magazine for her dedication to mindfulness-based approaches in clinical settings. Individual sessions are $145 and the office accepts major credit cards, checks, PayPal, and health savings accounts. Goldberg also leads group workshops on healthy communication and gratitude practices. The office building provides free parking, and the nearby Beach Area Women's Health Center offers complementary mental health resources for women in the community. In-person and telehealth sessions are available Monday through Thursday.
