Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I approach the complexities of bipolar disorder with a compassionate and comprehensive method, blending a variety of holistic strategies and psychotherapeutic tools to meet the individual needs of each client. Incorporating Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I aim to provide support that addresses both the emotional highs and lows associated with bipolar disorder. This personalized approach helps clients manage symptoms, improve emotional regulation, and develop effective coping strategies. By focusing on the whole person and not just the diagnosis, we explore lifestyle adjustments and therapeutic techniques that foster stability, well-being, and a more balanced life.

Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
To be clear, bipolar disorder is not just having simple mood swings. This is a biochemical condition through which people experience severe highs and lows. Medication is key to keeping stable.
Still, psychotherapy can play an incredibly important role, too. People living with bipolar disorder often experience serious lows, during which it can be hard to carry on with their normal lives and routines. I have worked with many clients with this illness using all different kinds of evidence-based practices to improve their daily functioning and get through the tough times. We will also try to find ways to reduce stress in your life, as stress has been suggested to trigger cycling between mania and depression.
