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.

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.
