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.

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.
