Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Living with bipolar disorder can feel unpredictable and overwhelming. Periods of depression may leave you feeling hopeless, exhausted, or disconnected, while episodes of elevated mood or increased energy can affect your judgment, relationships, work, and daily routine. The emotional highs and lows can make it difficult to feel stable, leading many people to experience frustration, uncertainty, or shame.
At Holding Space Therapy, we provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can better understand your mood patterns, identify triggers, and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms. Therapy focuses on helping you build consistency, strengthen emotional regulation, improve relationships, and increase your ability to recognize early warning signs of mood changes.
Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, psychoeducation, and trauma-informed care, we work collaboratively to help you develop healthy routines, improve coping skills, reduce stress, and support long-term emotional wellness. When appropriate, therapy is coordinated with your prescribing provider, as medication is often an important part of effectively managing bipolar disorder.
Many individuals living with bipolar disorder have also experienced trauma, anxiety, or significant life stress. Treatment takes a whole-person approach, recognizing how these experiences can influence mood, relationships, self-esteem, and overall well-being. With the right support, effective treatment, and practical tools, it is possible to build stability, strengthen resilience, and create a meaningful, fulfilling life.

When we live life based on our feelings, make decisions based on them, we spiral in chaos. Its exactly what anxious, addicted, depressed people do.

We want you to know that we can support you in bringing stability into the emotional chaos through the development of relational intelligence and integration of different interventions into your daily 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.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
