Victoria Jade Karra
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, CTP, CSTS, CCFP
I support those who are seeking to increase their capacity to manage their diagnosis rather than having the diagnosis manage them. While validating the individual experience I provide skills and tools that support increased wellness. Experience working for both the Bi-polar Foundation and the Canadian Mental Health Association has provided me with additional training and expertise in working with this particular mental health challenge. A personal connection with the diagnosis has only increased my empathy and understanding of the struggles that may experienced.

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.

Bipolar disorder reveals a dynamic interplay between emotional bonds and past wounds. Like a tempest within, its highs and lows mirror the tumult of attachment patterns shaped by early experiences. From the depths of despair to the heights of euphoria, individuals navigate a landscape coloured by the echoes of trauma, where relationships become both lifelines and battlegrounds. Understanding the intricate dance between attachment and mood shifts unveils pathways to healing, where therapy and supportive connections nurture stability and resilience. In this journey, compassion becomes the compass, guiding towards a place where the storm clouds part, revealing the potential for growth and newfound strength.
