As a clinical psychotherapist I work with clients to help them achieve their best lives. Usually that means moving past challenging and sometimes long-lasting issues.
I am a caring, compassionate professional, trained and motivated to help and heal. I use a variety of techniques in my practice, relying on a combination of cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic methods. However, every individual is unique; what works well for one client may be less effective for another. I'm especially mindful of this fact and I strive to be open minded regarding treatment.
Additional areas of focus: Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Parenting issues, Anger management, Self esteem, Bipolar disorder

Richard Goodman is very knowledgeable and identifies problem accurately. He has so much patience to listen through and motivates in right direction. I feel very lucky to get guidance and help from him. He focuses on long term achievement rather than quick fixes, by providing good techniques to deal with different problems.
