Debra Chandler

The most important thing I want potential clients to know is that I truly love doing therapy and sincerely care about the people I with work with. The belief that clients can create greater self awareness, insight and transformation through a non-judgmental, safe and compassionate relationship is the foundation of my approach. By providing an open and collaborative space, clients can explore their thought patterns, emotional/somatic states and behavioral experience to promote meaningful changes. I bring a warm smile, a curious, gentle, down to earth manner, a sense of humor and an authentic self into the therapy room. My approach is holistic, meaning I integrate humanistic, cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing and psychodynamic modalities into my approach. I specialize in the treatment of stress, depression, anxiety, personal relationships, obesity and weight loss issues. I incorporate a mindfulness approach to eating styles and weight management. I have been working in the field of mental health since 1979.
