Bipolar Disorder
Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I help individuals with bipolar disorder navigate their unique challenges by providing a comprehensive approach to treatment. This involves a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), tailored to help clients manage mood swings, develop coping strategies, and improve overall emotional regulation. I also focus on psychoeducation to enhance clients' understanding of their condition, fostering self-awareness and reducing stigma. Additionally, I work collaboratively with psychiatrists and other healthcare professionals to ensure a holistic treatment plan that may include medication management and lifestyle adjustments. My goal is to empower clients by equipping them with practical tools in a supportive therapeutic environment, helping them achieve greater stability and quality of life.

Bipolar Disorder
Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Bipolar Disorder consists of several key ingredients, which exist in addition to compliance to a medication regimen supervised by a physician. First, clients learn how to identify unhealthy, negative beliefs and behaviors and replace them with healthy, positive ones. Clients also learn how to identify what triggers bipolar episodes, and effective strategies to manage stress and to cope with upsetting situations.
Second, Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) has clients stabilize daily rhythms, such as sleeping, waking and mealtimes. A consistent routine allows for better mood management. Clients with bipolar disorder benefit from establishing a daily routine for sleep, diet and exercise.
Thirdly, clients are provided with psychoeducation about bipolar disorder, which can help them and their loved ones understand the condition. Being fully informed about one's condition can help a client to get the best support, identify issues, make a plan to prevent relapse and stick with treatment.
Lastly, family support and healthy communication can help clients stick with their treatment plan and help them and their loved ones recognize and manage warning signs of mood swings.
