Bipolar Disorder
Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
If I had to work with someone who has bipolar disorder, I assist them in understanding how their mood swings, both the lows of depression and the highs of mania, may interact with feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, overwhelm, and dissatisfaction in various areas of their life. In therapy, the goal is to help them handle these mood swings better, boost their overall well-being, and find some stability even when life gets tough.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
A person may struggle with Bipolar Disorder due to a combination of genetic factors, brain chemistry, and life experiences. I would use techniques from therapies like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help them manage mood swings and develop coping skills. I might use approaches like Motivational Interviewing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help them accept their diagnosis and make positive changes in their life.
