Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
The highs feel like finally becoming yourself. The lows feel like proof that the real you was the broken one all along. Somewhere between these two convictions is a person trying to hold a life together across states that seem to belong to different people entirely. Therapy here is not about flattening the range. It is about building a self sturdy enough to remain continuous through it — to know, in the middle of either pole, that you are still the one who was there yesterday and will be there tomorrow. Bipolar Disorder requires us to work with effective medication management, as we are dually wrestling with a medical and psychological phenomenon.

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.
