Bipolar
Kathleen Cramer, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., PSYPACT member
Bipolar Disorder is a mood disorder that includes two varying mood states: mania (or hypomania) and depression. CBT helps you learn how to manage those mood states, identify early triggers for mood changes, and develop skills to reduce the frequency/severity of mood episodes. This is accomplished by (1) helping people identify negative thought patterns that worsen depressive and/or manic symptoms; and (2) teaching them to challenge/replace those thoughts with more balanced/less distressing thoughts.
