Eric Goodman

Eric Goodman, Ph.D. is a licensed clinical psychologist in San Luis Obispo, California. He specializes in the treatment of anxiety disorders and OCD. He is the author of Social Courage: Coping and thriving with the reality of social anxiety. Rather than making false promises regarding "curing" anxiety (which is like saying someone can "cure" aging), he helps people learn to live more effectively with the reality that we all experience strong unpleasant emotions at times---it is hardwired into us! You can learn to suffer less with anxiety, lessen its negative impact on your life, and even teach your anxiety to be less over-zealous.
