Bio:
Debra Meehl, DD. is a Certified Pastoral Counselor and Intensively trained Dialectical Behavior Therapist (DBT) and Skills Trainer, She is the founder and President of the Meehl Foundation. Co-Author of the “Friends and Family Bipolar Survival Guide” and documentary presenter of the Life Focus TV series “A Mind Misunderstood” to air October 5, 2010 on PBS, TLN and TNN. With 20 years of recovery and rehabilitation experience Deb weaves humor and compassion in her presentations. As a trained therapist she gives case examples and scientific evidence of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, the only treatment that has up to an 87% success rate with certain mood and personality disorders. On a personal level, she learned that nothing in her professional education had prepared her for “successfully living with her soul mate who just happened to have BPD.” until she found Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.

Today Debra speaks around the U.S. on the topic Bipolar Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder with substance abuse, and the full life of recovery that you can have with these disorders. She and Mark teach, work and live the Dialectical Behavioral principles, while operating The Meehl Foundation and The Meehl House. The Meehl House currently offers the only Transitional Residential Home for Co-Occurring Disorder in the United States, with an "Intensively Trained DBT Team."
