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.
