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.

Dr. Brian M. Berman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in helping individuals better manage highs and lows that are the hallmark of bipolar disorder. By building an awareness of manic/hypomanic episodes, we can effectively eliminate the subsequent drop into depression.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Navigating Bipolar Disorder can feel like an exhausting journey between intense extremes, often leaving you feeling misunderstood or out of control. I partner with individuals to help find sustainable balance and predictability in their lives. My approach combines the structural support of DBT and CBT—essential for tracking moods, establishing healthy daily routines, and catching shifts before they become overwhelming—with the deep compassion of Internal Family Systems (IFS). Through parts-work and narrative exploration, we look past the diagnosis to heal the shame, grief, or trauma that frequently accompanies living with a chronic mental health condition. Together, we will work to stabilize the swings, strengthen your innate resilience, and help you build a life that feels grounded, steady, and uniquely your own.
