Brian Mandel, LCSW, LCSW-R

Brian Mandel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida and a LCSW-R licensed in New York with over 30 years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma, and issues around intimacy. He also addresses sleep and eating concerns, anger, career pressures, ADHD, and life transitions.

He approaches sessions assuming the client knows their own story and strengths. Conversations focus on practical steps and building skills that fit day-to-day life. Clients can expect straightforward, respectful conversations about what is getting in the way and what might help.

His background includes long-term clinical work supporting people through loss, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and end-of-life concerns. He brings experience helping with communication problems, control issues, and the emotional effects of aging and bereavement. He also works with mood disorders, panic attacks, and feelings of isolation.

Therapy draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, emotionally-focused work, and mindfulness practices. Those approaches are used to address thinking patterns, emotional regulation, and relationship interactions. Sessions aim to produce clearer coping options and manageable next steps.

Sessions proceed at a practical pace that recognizes work, family, and community pressures. The site uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the See online therapy options button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
