Debra Mandel, Ph.D.-licensed Psychologist in CA and CO

I love helping people overcome obstacles in their lives and learn to THRIVE. I have a strong passion for encouraging the strengths within each individual. Since no two people are exactly alike, I modify my approach and style to address your specific struggles and to meet your individual needs. Seeking therapy can be a very scary endeavor, especially if you were raised with any negative stigmas around mental health issues. I will work hard at helping you feel safe in the process of finding the right therapist and removing negative assumptions and concerns. Please feel free to ask questions and gather the information you need to find the right fit for you! Let me help you live life to the fullest and fulfill your dreams! Please contact me if you think I would be a good fit for your needs. Best, Dr. Debra

I've written five published books concerning relationships and how to improve ourselves within our intimate bonds. I love working with teens, parents, couples and adults using a holistic model and a variety of treatment modalities (Gestalt, DBT, EMDR, CBT and more). I'm active and interactive and I believe in focusing attention on the positive aspects of an individual or system. I welcome questions and feedback during the therapy process so as to provide the best help and resources possible! I specialize in treating people with relationshipintimacy struggles, infidelity, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, addictions, post-traumatic stress disorder, and general life concerns.
