Bipolar disorder can make life feel unpredictable, but with the right support, it’s possible to achieve stability and emotional well-being. I specialize in bipolar disorder therapy, utilizing a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and emotion regulation techniques to help individuals manage mood swings and reduce the impact of manic and depressive episodes. Together, we identify early warning signs, challenge negative thought patterns, and create personalized coping strategies that promote lasting mental health and balance. If you're seeking support for bipolar disorder, I’m here to guide you toward a more stable and fulfilling life

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.
