About Mindability

The Mindability Group (Mindability), based in Scottsdale, Arizona, first introduced the concept of systematic and successful interventions for behavioral health conditions with its flagship publication ‘Integrated Cognitive Restructuring’ in 1995. Mindability’s portfolio now includes both in-person, online self-coaching programs for stress management, depression, generalized anxiety, psychophysiologic conditions, pre-employment psychological screenings, emotional intelligence, risk assessments, and other behavioral challenges facing our clients today.

Built on forty five years of industry experience, Mindability programs have been successfully used by leading hospitals, mental health centers, government agencies, aging adult organizations, primary care clinicians, family business concerns and corporations, reaching individuals ranging from college students to mature adults. Their ground breaking programs continue to reduce the stigma that inhibits many individuals with behavioral health concerns from seeking assistance. 

As subject matter experts, Mindability’s award winning leaders and advisory board members have been featured and published in several industry/media platforms and books including: Business Week, International Herald Tribune, The Huffington Post, various Business Journals, titles such as ‘The Family Business Shareholder's Handbook’, ‘Simple Hand’ and other global publications. In addition to authoring custom clinical guides, Mindability remains committed to the goal of teaching people how to identify behavioral health issues and specific processes to access help for themselves or a loved one.
