Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Managing mood swings by identifying and modifying thought patterns can help you with bipolar disorder. Psychoeducation provides essential information about the disorder, fostering better understanding and management. Interpersonal and social rhythm therapy (IPSRT) is also beneficial, as it focuses on stabilizing daily routines and improving relationships, which can help prevent mood episodes.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Bipolar disorder involves navigating intense shifts in mood, energy, and relationships. I draw on IFS, family systems, DBT-informed skills, and mindfulness practices to help clients develop awareness of mood changes, regulate stress, and strengthen support systems. With extensive experience collaborating with prescribers, I support clients in balancing therapy with medication management. My diagnostic skills ensure careful differentiation from depression, ADHD, trauma, or personality disorders.

Dr. Amanda Malak

I specialize in supporting individuals with bipolar disorder by helping them manage the emotional ups and downs that come with the condition. I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches, like CBT and DBT to help people recognize mood patterns, build coping strategies, and develop emotional regulation skills.

Referrals for medication management, if desired, are made to local prescribing providers.
12 Years Experience
Online in Memphis, TN
Memphis has among the highest rates of poverty and violent crime in the United States, and its therapists frequently specialize in trauma, PTSD, and the psychological effects of chronic community-level violence and economic stress. The city's African American community — which comprises a majority of the population and carries a rich cultural heritage rooted in blues, soul, and civil rights history — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. Regional One Health and Baptist Memorial Health Care provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of community clinics. Memphis's deep musical identity sustains a creative community with its own distinctive mental health needs around artistic expression, economic precarity, and the weight of legacy.
