Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder therapy works best as one part of a larger treatment plan. Our therapists don't prescribe medication, so therapy here runs alongside the care you get from your psychiatrist or physician. Sessions focus on the practical and emotional sides of living with bipolar disorder, from daily routines to the relationships that matter to you.
Areas of Focus
Your psychiatric provider or physician handles diagnosis and medication. With your written consent, we can coordinate with them so everyone is working from the same information.
If you need a higher level of care than an outpatient practice can offer, we'll tell you directly and help you think about where to go.
On a free 5 to 10 minute consultation, you can tell us about your current care and ask how therapy with us would fit around it.
Sessions draw on DBT for emotional intensity and impulsive urges, CBT for thinking that shifts with your mood, and structured routines around sleep, activity and stimulation. We also spend time on practical matters, such as who you tell, what you ask of the people close to you, and what goes into a plan you agree on together.
