Bipolar
Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
My work focuses on helping clients recognize early signs of mood changes, develop practical strategies for managing symptoms, and reduce the strain bipolar disorder can place on relationships. I also support partners and family members in understanding the condition and learning how to respond in ways that promote safety, clarity, and connection rather than conflict.
I have experience providing crisis support during periods of heightened emotional distress, helping clients slow things down, regain perspective, and access appropriate supports when needed. Over time, our work aims to strengthen coping skills, improve communication, and create a more predictable and supportive foundation for both individual wellbeing and relational health.

I work with clients experiencing bipolar disorder using a trauma-informed, parts-based approach. We explore the underlying patterns and emotional shifts that influence mood and behavior. Together, we develop tools for stabilization, self-awareness, and living in greater balance and clarity.

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.
