Hi there! I'm Dr. Matthew Goodman, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in the treatment of anxiety. I utilize traditional cognitive-behavioral approaches, including ERP for OCD (the "gold standard"), in conjunction with mindfulness-based interventions. Many of my clients are struggling to change behaviors that are contributing to, or exacerbating, their mental health — poor sleep, substance use, relationship difficulties, or work/life balance. I draw on years of experience utilizing and teaching behavior change techniques to help you take practical, meaningful steps towards your goals.
I take an individualized, person-centered approach, meeting you exactly where you are. You define your direction; I support you in getting there. My clients would describe me as warm, nonjudgmental, and playful, integrating lightheartedness and humor into the serious and often challenging nature of psychotherapy.
Prior to private practice, I served as Clinical Assistant Professor at USC. I have been teaching meditation for 10+ years and run courses and workshops on mindfulness. I also teach public classes weaving together mindfulness and improv! : ) I would be glad to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we're a good fit. I look forward to talking more.

Mindfulness + Self-Compassion (6-Week Group)

Photo of Matthew S Goodman, PhD, Psychologist
Hosted by
Matthew S Goodman

The most important relationship we have is the one with ourselves. Mindfulness and self-compassion help us relate to our experiences differently—with greater awareness, kindness, and ease. Research suggests these are not static traits but “skills” that can be cultivated with intentional practice. These qualities of mind facilitate greater emotional and physical wellness. This course provides an introduction to mindfulness and self-compassion. By the end of this course participants should have developed a daily mindfulness and/or self-compassion practice to support greater ease, joy, and presence in their lives.

Mindfulness + Improv

Photo of Matthew S Goodman, PhD, Psychologist
Hosted by
Matthew S Goodman

What do Mindfulness and Improv Comedy have in common? PRESENCE. This class allows you to flex your present-moment muscles in a supportive environment. This concoction of mindfulness and play (supported by research) is ideal for the the over-thinking, perfectionistic, need-to-be-in-control-y person—really, anyone struggling to be present. You’ll practice mindfulness, interactive play exercises, and learn to work with the “internal critic,” all within a non-judgmental atmosphere. You’ll learn how to get out of your head, let go of control, and step into the unknown. No prior improv/acting experience necessary!
