Bipolar Disorder
Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

Bipolar Disorder
Claudia Mellott
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LCPC
Bipolar disorder can be a complicated disorder. It is unfortunate that many people go many years before being properly diagnosed. This can result in the collection of many negative consequences including relationship issues, self-worth issues, and employment issues. Although all of us benefit with some structure surrounding sleep, nutrition, and exercise, individuals with bipolar disorder need to be especially attentive to self care. Coping skills and stress reduction can also be impactful. Psychotherapy is a very important part of the medical treatment of bipolar disorder. Understanding how this disorder affects you personally is especially helpful in arriving at a plan for treatment.
