Azin Heydari
Registered Psychotherapist, RP; MA
For Bipolar Disorder, a therapy-focused approach that involves a customized plan targeting biological and psychological aspects is essential. My practice prioritizes an integrated treatment method to regulate daily habits like sleep, diet, and activity, aiming to decrease mood episodes. We pair therapy with psychoeducation to enhance your understanding of the disorder, promote self-awareness, and empower you to take back control from feelings of chaos and invasiveness caused by the disorder.

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.

Victoria Jade Karra
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, CTP, CSTS
I support individuals living with bipolar disorder in developing greater understanding, self-awareness, and capacity to navigate the complexities of their experiences with increased stability, self-compassion, and support. Therapy can become a space to explore patterns, strengthen coping strategies, and build practical tools that support long-term wellness and quality of life.
My experience working with both the Bipolar Disorder Society of British Columbia and the Canadian Mental Health Association has provided me with additional experience and insight in supporting individuals living with bipolar disorder. Personal connection to the diagnosis has also deepened my empathy and understanding of the realities, complexities, and challenges that can accompany it.
