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.

"Thank you so much for this service. The worksheets really made me dig in and sort out some of the difficult emotions.
My therapist, Dana, was excellent and really challenged me to keep up the work to get over the hurdles.. the constant contact helped me to have a continuous healing conversation. The videos were very informative and I have a whole new toolbox to use moving forward.
I feel like a new person in just a few weeks and am moving forward with new insights for the next season of my life and many tools to use when issues arise in the future.
I’m very glad I made the choice to log in and start healing. Thank you so much..:)
Happy Camper"

"Working with Dr. Vicki D. Coleman has been an exceptional and truly life-changing experience. She is a highly professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate therapist who listens carefully, understands deeply, and explains everything with clarity and patience.

Throughout the Anger Management Program, Dr. Vicki helped me recognize important patterns in my thinking and behavior, guided me through practical tools, and supported me in developing new skills that I can apply in my personal, family, and professional life. I always felt respected, understood, and motivated during every session.

Her approach is warm, encouraging, and very effective. I am sincerely grateful for the time, effort, and guidance she provided. Thanks to her, I have made real progress and feel more confident moving forward.

I highly recommend Dr. Vicki to anyone who is looking for a skilled, dedicated, and caring therapist. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients."
