CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Living with bipolar disorder can feel like navigating life in extremes—periods of intensity, energy, and drive mixed with stretches of heaviness, exhaustion, or uncertainty. It can be confusing, exhausting, and sometimes lonely. In therapy, we’ll work together to bring more stability, clarity, and predictability into your day-to-day life. I help clients understand their mood patterns, recognize early warning signs, build supportive routines, and develop tools that make both the highs and the lows feel more manageable. There's a path towards steadiness--and you don't have to get there alone.
