While it is common for people to experience mood swings from time to time, bipolar disorder is much more severe. When someone has bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression) their mood shifts from periods of over-excitement and feeling like you're "on fire" (manic episodes) to periods of feeling severely depressed (depressive episodes).

During manic episodes, it's common to have a generally elevated mood, be highly active, experience higher self-esteem and need less sleep. This often alternates with depressive periods where you feel little joy in life, have problems sleeping, gain or lose weight and experience a loss of energy.

While this can be stressful and even debilitating, there is hope. Our therapy for bipolar is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which has been shown in research studies to help people with bipolar disorder, often used in conjunction with medication. You see, it is your thoughts that affect your perception of the world, and with bipolar disorder, your brain tends to process information in an inaccurate and distorted way. With the help of your therapist, you will be able to identify and challenge these distorted and negative thought patterns that cause your stress and even harmful behavior. By identifying the situations that trigger your manic and depressive episodes, you will be more aware of when a mood shift is about to happen. And, eventually, you will be able to control your emotions and stress. By discovering new coping and behavioral skills, you will be able to stick to a treatment plan and live a more stable lifestyle, which will reduce the risks of a relapse.

"The worksheets helped me learn more about myself, and got me to really think about who I am as a person. Therapist live sessions were very insightful, nudging me to think in the right direction. A lot of preparation work required if you want the session to be efficient, but I think it's worth it. Would also help if therapist would do some prep work as well, and maybe suggest areas to explore on before each session based on previous sessions."

"I started off with two phone calls a week because I was in a crisis. I can’t afford that now, but the help that I am getting is really helpful I don’t know which therapist you would get if you’re reading this trying to get an appointment, but the worksheets are really great so you can do healing on your own time as well as work with your therapist"
