Molly Toomey
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I've worked closely with individuals with bipolar disorder, including young adults and transition-age youth, and have personal experience with it as well. I support bipolar folks around de-shaming and de-stigmatizing—including identifying the correct diagnosis or accepting an existing diagnosis, exploring what it means for your identity, dealing with its impact on your relationships or work/school, managing symptoms, and learning to navigate the inevitable highs and lows of the disorder so that you can live fully and confidently with bipolar.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in bipolar disorder, my approach to treatment is multifaceted and collaborative. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), I work with individuals to understand their mood fluctuations, identify triggers, and develop effective coping strategies. Additionally, I collaborate closely with psychiatrists to ensure comprehensive medication management when necessary. Psychoeducation is an integral component of treatment, providing individuals and their support networks with valuable insights into the nature of bipolar disorder and tools for managing symptoms. Together, we strive to promote stability, enhance quality of life, and empower individuals to navigate the challenges of bipolar disorder with resilience and self-awareness.
