Bipolar
Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Bipolar disorder can have a profound effect on your emotions, relationships, self-esteem, identity, and sense of stability. The shifts between depression, elevated mood, impulsivity, anxiety, irritability, or emotional intensity can be exhausting, frightening, and difficult to manage. My approach is warm, supportive, and non-judgemental. It is less about labels and diagnoses, and more about understanding your inner world: your emotions, patterns, needs, relationships, fears, strengths, and life experiences. Together, we can make your patterns clearer, recognise early signs of change, and help life feel more manageable and stable. I know that receiving a diagnosis can sometimes be both validating and overwhelming. It can explain a lot, but it should never define you. What matters most is helping you understand yourself more deeply, feel more in control, and avoid identifying with labels in ways that leave you feeling trapped or hopeless.

Work with bipolar disorder requires a solid knowledge of the biological basis of this spectrum condition and the nuances involved with a cycling mood disorder.

James Darby
Registered Psychotherapist, Postgraduate Diploma Core Process Psychotherapy, DCHyp, ABSCH, MBA
For those with BPD, who often struggle with intense emotions, unstable relationships, and a fragmented sense of self, Core Process Psychotherapy (CPP) provides a safe and supportive environment to explore these experiences. My job is to establish a holding field which fosters relational presence, mindfulness based approaches and body awareness, thereby helping individuals to develop greater emotional regulation, reduce impulsivity, and build a more coherent sense of self. The therapeutic relationship in CPP is also crucial, as it provides a steadfast and compassionate presence that can help individuals with BPD develop trust and experience corrective emotional experiences that facilitate healing and growth.
21 Years Experience
Online in Belfast, NI Northern Ireland
Belfast's complex history — encompassing decades of sectarian conflict during the Troubles, the Good Friday Agreement, and ongoing peace process work — shapes a therapy culture in which community trauma, intergenerational grief, and political identity are recurring clinical themes. The city has made significant strides in mental health awareness, and a growing generation of therapists trained through Queen's University Belfast and Ulster University brings contemporary approaches to a city still processing historical wounds. Belfast Health and Social Care Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in South Belfast and the university quarter. The relative normalization of therapy-seeking among younger Belfast residents represents a meaningful cultural shift from earlier generations.
