Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in supporting individuals with bipolar disorder by helping them manage the emotional ups and downs that come with the condition. I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches, like CBT and DBT to help people recognize mood patterns, build coping strategies, and develop emotional regulation skills. My goal is to empower individuals to manage symptoms, improve relationships, and maintain stability in their daily lives. Referrals for medication management, if desired, are made to local prescribing providers.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Bipolar disorder involves navigating intense shifts in mood, energy, and relationships. I draw on IFS, family systems, DBT-informed skills, and mindfulness practices to help clients develop awareness of mood changes, regulate stress, and strengthen support systems. With extensive experience collaborating with prescribers, I support clients in balancing therapy with medication management. My diagnostic skills ensure careful differentiation from depression, ADHD, trauma, or personality disorders.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
The highs feel like finally becoming yourself. The lows feel like proof that the real you was the broken one all along. Somewhere between these two convictions is a person trying to hold a life together across states that seem to belong to different people entirely. Therapy here is not about flattening the range. It is about building a self sturdy enough to remain continuous through it — to know, in the middle of either pole, that you are still the one who was there yesterday and will be there tomorrow. Bipolar Disorder requires us to work with effective medication management, as we are dually wrestling with a medical and psychological phenomenon.
