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.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
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. They respond to life based on how they feel and they get worse. Bipolar disorder is an emotional roller coaster and it can feel crazy making at times. 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. The truth is you can develop stability over your emotional life and we would like to come along side you to support you in that journey.

Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Living with bipolar disorder can feel confusing, destabilizing, and emotionally exhausting both for individuals and for the people who care about them. Mood instability often affects relationships, identity, work functioning, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. Many clients also struggle with anxiety, shame, impulsivity, depression, or difficulty understanding patterns in their emotional experience.
I provide therapy for individuals living with bipolar spectrum conditions with a focus on emotional regulation, insight, stability, coping skills, relational functioning, and long-term psychological wellbeing. My approach emphasizes collaboration, psychoeducation, and evidence-based treatment while also recognizing the importance of understanding each person’s unique personality, life history, and emotional experience beyond diagnostic labels alone.

Pasadena is home to Caltech and the Huntington Hospital, and the city's intellectual, academic culture creates demand for therapists experienced in working with high-achievers navigating perfectionism, burnout, and the psychological demands of elite academic and scientific environments. The city's established residential character and proximity to Los Angeles give it a distinct therapy landscape — less entertainment-focused than West Hollywood, more oriented toward depth work, relationships, and long-term growth. Pasadena also has a significant older adult population, with therapists specializing in aging, life review, and elder family dynamics well represented. Many practices serve clients drawn from across the San Gabriel Valley and Foothill communities.
