Bipolar Disorder
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns), Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in nursing and mental health (including working in psychiatric secure units), I have a good understanding of various mental health diagnoses including various bipolar disorders and how they impact the person and the potential impacts for those around them required to support them. This makes it easier for you to not feel you need to provide detailed explanation the diagnosis, rather focusing on what you actually wish to discuss to use your session time in a way that fits best for you. If I have any question about the diagnosis etc, I will only ask specifically regarding that missing piece of information to assist my understanding so I can support you best.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties in dealing with bipolar disorder related issues to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Bipolar Disorder
Dr Ian Anderson
Psychologist, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered), PhD, MSc, MSc, MSc, MA (Econ), BA (Econ) Hons
I believe that the most important first step is to conduct a thorough diagnostic procedure. I have come across many individuals who carry this diagnosis when in fact other psychological explanations are a better fit. Once a diagnosis is made, the most important factor is to design a program for the individual's circumstances.

Bipolar Disorder
Jimi Katsis
Counsellor/Therapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Bipolar disorder is a mental health disorder characterized by extreme mood swings, known as manic or hypomanic episodes and depressive episodes. These episodes can greatly impact an individual's ability to function in daily life and can cause significant distress.
As a therapist, I specialize in helping individuals with bipolar disorder. I use evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) which have been proven to be effective in treating bipolar disorder.
CBT is a form of therapy that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to their symptoms. DBT is a form of therapy that helps individuals develop coping skills such as emotional regulation, mindfulness and distress tolerance, which can help them manage their emotions in a healthy way.
In therapy sessions, we will work together to understand the underlying causes of your bipolar disorder and develop strategies to manage your symptoms. We will also work on building resilience and coping skills to help you navigate through the challenges that you may face.
Bipolar disorder can be challenging and overwhelming, but with the right support, it is possible to manage symptoms and improve your overall well-being. I am here to help you navigate this process, and I encourage you to reach out for help

Bipolar Disorder
Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
Medical diagnostic terms such as 'Bipolar Disorder' are now used quite frequently in everyday conversation. I often work with people who have experiences of themselves as sometimes feeling very low and hopeless, and at other times feeling powerful and as if they can do anything. Managing these polar opposite moods can be exhausting and destructive.
