Eric Pierson
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
Having written my dissertation on bipolar disorder, I discovered that not much research has been done on improving the lives of people suffering from the diagnosis. As bipolar disorder creates many challenges for those who carry the diagnosis, my goal has been to help people manage their symptoms and take steps to improve the quality of their lives.

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.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Bipolar is when someone is experiencing extreme polar emotional fluctuations at different times. We all can experience opposite emotional experiences that can be a part of life. It is up to the clinicians to examine whether your symptoms are clinically significant or not. When it is diagnosed, it often necessitates medication treatment along with psychotherapy as it is one of the most difficult conditions to treat without medication in severe to moderate presentations. It is also one of those highly complex diagnoses that a master's level educated licensed marriage and family therapists and social workers for example are not expected to diagnose bipolar disorder. At the Practice, the skilled practitioner/Clinician is available who's been experienced with identifying such complicated symptoms in a much shorter period overall. Researches found that it takes about 10 years for someone to be properly diagnosed with complicated diagnosis, such as bipolar from the time the person first contact a mental health service for help. They are commonly misdiagnosed with depression. That is a 10 year of wasted life, energy, deteriorated relationships, and reduced productivity/income on someone. I highly recommend contacting the office asap if you suspect that you have the related symptoms.

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.
