Bipolar Disorder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
Conventional treatment for bipolar (all types) is drug therapy. Many such patients go off of their medication for various reasons. My approach is to identify and resolve the core emotional issues that have led to development of the disorder presenting the possibility of recovery without drugs. Internal family therapy treatment is particularly helpful in this area.

I use DBT which emphasizes the importance of recognizing early warning signs of mood shifts and developing strategies to cope with both depressive and manic episodes. Clients learn to identify triggers, regulate intense emotions, and navigate mood fluctuations.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Bipolar Disorder is categorized by highs and lows in mood. Sometimes periods of severe depression, and mania may accompany bipolar disorder making it one of the most misunderstood mental health diagnoses in the field. In therapy, we work on tackling the underlying thought patterns that accompany bipolar (and the stigma one may have faced as a result). while providing simple yet effective coping strategies that improve daily functioning.
