Bipolar

Bipolar disorder is a chronic mood condition that is comprised of extreme mood shifts. Mania and hypomania cause changes in behavior, sleep patterns, energy levels, and thought process. Whether you have been diagnosed with bipolar in the past or you are concerned you may have it, it is not always easy to remember aspects of mood episodes. Most people seek treatment during the depression phase of their disorder. We encourage an approach that allows us the time to assess your history and to have anyone in your support system join you at any time.

Our program emphasizes education, awareness, and decreasing stigma. We provide support by helping you create a relapse prevention plan that values stress management and daily mood tracking. We believe in a medication approach that promotes quality of life and stability. This means we prefer medications that effectively manage your mood while allowing you to be you.
