Bipolar disorder can disrupt your work, relationships, and sense of self — leaving you feeling out of control or exhausted by the highs and lows. As an adult, you may be juggling responsibilities while silently struggling.

Psychologist, PsyD
Bipolar disorder often brings intense shifts in mood that carry important messages about your needs, relationships, and sense of self. In our work, we provide a steady, supportive space to explore these experiences while helping you understand patterns and triggers. Approached with curiosity and care, these mood changes can become a pathway to greater self-awareness, balance, and connection.

Dr. Judith Bank
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, MA, BSW, Fellowship, BCD, LCSW,
I see the patient several times. Most often I will refer for medication. Some have great difficulty with admitting this disorder so I try to normalize the syndrome before a medication evaluation. I have seen a number of patients where different meds needed to be prescribed. Patience and a careful empathy are essential.

Madison is home to the University of Wisconsin — one of the top research universities in the country — and serves as Wisconsin's state capital, giving it an unusually high concentration of academics, researchers, and government professionals who collectively represent one of the most therapy-positive demographics in the Midwest. The city's progressive political culture and high rate of higher education strongly correlate with high therapy utilization and acceptance across multiple demographics. UW Health and SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-developed private practice community serving Willy Street, Atwood, and the Near East Side. Madison's growing Latino and East African communities — particularly Hmong and Somali residents — are increasing demand for multilingual and culturally grounded therapists.
