Specialty Blurb: Bipolar Disorder
"Living with the shifting intensity of bipolar disorder can often feel like navigating an unpredictable tide. In our sessions, my primary focus is to provide a stable, non-judgmental anchor for you to explore these fluctuations safely. I utilize evidence-based tools—specifically DBT skills training and CBT—to help you identify early mood indicators, build effective regulation strategies, and foster greater day-to-day stability. We will work together to create a personalized plan that honors your experience while empowering you to manage the 'highs' and 'lows' with greater confidence, helping you regain a sense of balance and rhythm in your life."

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I help individuals with bipolar disorder navigate their unique challenges by providing a comprehensive approach to treatment. This involves a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), tailored to help clients manage mood swings, develop coping strategies, and improve overall emotional regulation. I also focus on psychoeducation to enhance clients' understanding of their condition, fostering self-awareness and reducing stigma. Additionally, I work collaboratively with psychiatrists and other healthcare professionals to ensure a holistic treatment plan that may include medication management and lifestyle adjustments. My goal is to empower clients by equipping them with practical tools in a supportive therapeutic environment, helping them achieve greater stability and quality of life.
