Bipolar Disorder Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Greg Rennie and Josh Goordat are trained in Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) for bipolar. Greg has realized over his 20 years experience as a therapist and life experience as he was diagnosed in 1997 and knows how important it is to specialize in this area. His role is to help clients relieve their emotional pain no different than a doctor who relieves physical pain. Every client is different and that is why he works as a caring, compassionate client-centred therapist.
Josh Goordat's approach to mental health is shaped not just by academic and regulatory frameworks, but by his own lived experience. In 2022, he navigated a significant personal challenge when he was diagnosed with Type I Bipolar Disorder and underwent a journey of recovery from an episode of manic psychosis. This period transformed his understanding of resilience, psychiatric crises, and the importance of compassionate, non-judgmental care. Today, Josh integrates his academic foundation and professional clinical training with a firsthand understanding of recovery.

Reaching out for help when we are struggling takes courage. Understanding what a Bipolar diagnosis is and how to minimize its effect on your life can be a game changer and have a dramatic positive impact on your life. I can help you navigate this journey & achieve the goals you have set to live the life you truly deserve. I specialize in treating clients diagnosed with Bipolar l and ll. I am the founder of Environmental Stress-Targeted Therapy EVSTT, the very first psychotherapeutic treatment protocol developed for patients with BD to include clinical hypnosis and hypnotherapy, and target the stress response connected with manic, hypomanic, and depressive episodes. My research was published in my bestselling book, “A Therapist’s Guide to Treating Bipolar Disorder with Hypnosis: An Introduction to Environmental Stress-Targeted Therapy” in 2020 and I received an Honorary Doctorate of Advanced Studies in Psychology in 2022 for this groundbreaking research. Call or email me today to begin your journey towards healing.
