Richard Carlson, Ph.D., was a renowned psychotherapist and bestselling author who gained international recognition for his "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" book series. With a doctorate in psychology from Sierra University, Carlson dedicated his career to helping people reduce stress and find greater happiness in their lives. His groundbreaking work in stress management and personal growth resonated with millions of readers worldwide, leading to the publication of over 30 books translated into more than 30 languages.
Carlson's approachable writing style and practical advice made complex psychological concepts accessible to the general public. He frequently appeared on television and radio shows, sharing his insights on how to navigate life's challenges with grace and perspective. Beyond his writing, Carlson was a sought-after speaker, conducting workshops and seminars that empowered individuals to lead more fulfilling lives.
The "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" philosophy, which encourages people to focus on what truly matters and let go of minor irritations, became a cultural phenomenon. Carlson's work not only transformed individual lives but also influenced corporate cultures and educational practices.
Richard Carlson resided in California with his wife Kristine, who continues to carry on his legacy through her own writing and speaking engagements. His untimely passing in 2006 left a void in the self-help community, but his wisdom continues to inspire and guide readers seeking a more balanced and joyful existence.
