About Abbe Goodman

I am licensed in California with 40 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, eating disorders, motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I work with patients of all ages, including children, teens, seniors and families to positively create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Let me further emphasize that the adolescent population can freely discuss feelings and situations with me.
I encourage you to take the first step towards seeking a more fulfilling and happier life which takes courage. I emphasize that I am here to support you in that process.
