James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
Extreme emotional states are a lifelong problem for many people. While I know that hereditable, biological factors are important, and medication is often helpful, I also try to understand the emotions as patterns of attempted mastery that the person has developed beginning in childhood, and work psychologically with those patterns, helping to craft modifications that make life more fulfilling.
