Bipolar Disorder
Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include bipolar disorder therapy, Bipolar I and Bipolar II, mood stabilization, relapse prevention, emotional regulation, and trauma-informed care for serious mental illness.
I work with adults 18+ living with bipolar disorder, including Bipolar I and Bipolar II. Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by mood swings, afraid of relapse, or unsure how to trust their own emotions and energy levels. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and focused on long-term stability—helping clients recognize early warning signs, strengthen routines that support mood regulation, and reduce shame around diagnosis. Therapy is a space to build insight, self-trust, and a more balanced life while coordinating care when medication support is part of treatment.

Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again.
