Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Bipolar Disorder consists of several key ingredients, which exist in addition to compliance to a medication regimen supervised by a physician. First, clients learn how to identify unhealthy, negative beliefs and behaviors and replace them with healthy, positive ones. Clients also learn how to identify what triggers bipolar episodes, and effective strategies to manage stress and to cope with upsetting situations.
Second, Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) has clients stabilize daily rhythms, such as sleeping, waking and mealtimes. A consistent routine allows for better mood management. Clients with bipolar disorder benefit from establishing a daily routine for sleep, diet and exercise.
Thirdly, clients are provided with psychoeducation about bipolar disorder, which can help them and their loved ones understand the condition. Being fully informed about one's condition can help a client to get the best support, identify issues, make a plan to prevent relapse and stick with treatment.
Lastly, family support and healthy communication can help clients stick with their treatment plan and help them and their loved ones recognize and manage warning signs of mood swings.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Bipolar disorder involves navigating intense shifts in mood, energy, and relationships. I draw on IFS, family systems, DBT-informed skills, and mindfulness practices to help clients develop awareness of mood changes, regulate stress, and strengthen support systems. With extensive experience collaborating with prescribers, I support clients in balancing therapy with medication management. My diagnostic skills ensure careful differentiation from depression, ADHD, trauma, or personality disorders.

Bipolar disorder can disrupt your work, relationships, and sense of self — leaving you feeling out of control or exhausted by the highs and lows.

Therapy offers a space to make sense of these patterns, manage mood swings more effectively, and regain a sense of stability. Together, we’ll work toward clarity, confidence, and emotional balance. If you're ready to feel more in control of your life, I’m here to support you.
