Miriam Adrianowicz
Psychologist, PsyD
Bipolar disorder can be quite disruptive, but if understood and treated appropriately, it can also be quite manageable. It is important to create awareness of what triggers manic and depressive episodes, and understand how you know you're moving in the direction of one or the other. Through understanding how this disorder presents itself in your specific body, what may encourage or prevent you from taking measures to maintain stability, and working with a psychiatrist to find the right medication for you, we can work together to try to get ahead of future episodes so that you can cultivate a sense of control over this disorder and equanimity in your life.

Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
People who suffer from Bipolar Disorder often have complicated and challenging lives. Relationships are frequently challenging and the emotional upheaval caused by BPD is tremendous. Healing from BPD however is possible if the client is willing to dedicate themselves to intensive and systematic treatment. Effective treatment for BPD is multi-faceted, and requires a combination of mindfulness meditation, individual psychotherapy and group work. I help my clients access all aspects of the necessary
treatment for BPD.

I work closely with clients with Bipolar as they tend to appreciate a longer support plan where I help lead them through their bipolar episodes. The tools I have in my practice compliment really nicely to help them feel better.

Berkeley is home to the University of California, Berkeley—one of the world's great public research universities—and has a progressive, intellectually vibrant character and a community culture that is among the most therapy-positive in the United States, with an unusually high density of licensed therapists relative to population. The university's health services include counseling for enrolled students, and the academic and activist culture of Berkeley creates specific mental health pressures around perfectionism, imposter syndrome, political engagement, and the burnout of sustained social activism. The city's housing market is among the most expensive in the country, and financial precarity is a significant stressor for students, artists, and workers who value Berkeley but struggle to afford it. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, activist burnout, identity and social justice, anxiety, depression, and the complex emotional experience of living in a place with deeply held ideals about equity alongside the daily reality of inequality.
