I am experienced in individual therapy and assessments (ADHD, learning disabilities, cognitive impairment, bipolar disorder, and many more).
Life can be challenging, and I want to recognize the courageous steps you are taking to seeking counseling. Often, we can feel overwhelmed when dealing with difficult situations and emotions. We may develop patterns of coping that lead us to feel stuck or isolated, particularly when we struggle with symptoms of anxiety and depression. If you hope to explore and process these feelings, patterns, and situations and find more adaptive ways to cope, I would be honored to support you along the way. I believe that each client is on a unique journey and that, together, we can find a positive, therapeutic path.

It's been a while since you have felt like yourself. Every day is a struggle and you often wonder when things will be normal again. You find your mind racing, while fear robs you of a hopeful tomorrow. You feel like you have tried everything to bring peace and comfort to your situation, but the problems seem to be growing day by day. You ask yourself how things have progressed to this point? Depression and anxiety seem to rule your next step and have zapped you of any hope you have for tomorrow. The journey has been long and difficult and you’re tired and want to see changes happen.

Bipolar Disorder Therapists
What is the most successful approach to treating bipolar disorder?
Living with bipolar disorder can be challenging, and a number of therapies have been found effective in providing support to patients as they gain the skills to understand and manage the disorder. Family-focused therapy is often helpful for children and teens (the majority of cases develop before age 19); it aims to minimize mood cycling by improving family communication and reducing conflict. It also helps young people navigate the developmental challenges the disorder can create. Cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) and variants such as Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)help patients manage the thoughts and feelings that influence bipolar mood swings as well as develop specific behavioral strategies to counteract them.
What happens in therapy for bipolar disorder?
Because the patterns of mood switching and its triggers differ for each person and can change over time, mood tracking or monitoring becomes a basic way patients learn about the nature of their condition. One of the most common features of therapy is finding a workable method of mood monitoring, in which patients track their daily activities and rate their moods, then use the findings to adjust routines accordingly. Patients learn ways of handling the many stresses that arise in life so that they do not trigger mood swings.
What kinds of problems does therapy help with?
Like many other mental health disorders, BPD is heavily influenced by stress; therapy provides skills for coping with stressors of all kinds. Therapy is extremely important for helping individuals identify the situations that may trigger mood switching, so that mood swings can be prevented. Therapy may especially target recognition of the early stages of mood change so that they can be managed. In addition, therapy helps patients deal with the significant amount of turbulence the disorder can create in relationships and in work life.
What is the goal of therapy for bipolar disorder?
Therapy helps patients set up their lives to maintain stability so that their mood isn’t constantly threatened by daily events. Perhaps the first task of therapy is to educate people about the nature of the disorder. At the same time, a primary goal of therapy is to enhance adherence to drug treatment. Extended periods of mood stability can prompt patients to discontinue medication, triggering relapse, while the early phases of manic episodes can feel so energizing that patients stop medication, ushering in full-blown mania and the altered self-perception that can lead to destructive behaviors. Another major goal of therapy is to understand one’s mood patterns so as to minimize both the frequency and intensity of mood cycling.
