Dr. Trey Cole
Psychologist, Psy.D., ABPP, DAAETS
I work with individuals experiencing bipolar disorder to better understand and manage mood swings, emotional triggers, and daily stressors. Together, we develop coping strategies, routines, and skills to promote stability and emotional balance. My approach emphasizes self-awareness, resilience, and support in navigating both the highs and lows of life.

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.

Living with bipolar disorder can feel like a rollercoaster—intense highs, overwhelming lows, and everything in between. These mood shifts can impact relationships, work, and your overall sense of stability.

Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been navigating bipolar disorder for years, therapy can offer a grounded space for insight, stability, and hope.

Mary Knoblock, DNH
Hypnotherapist, DNH, RTT Practitioner, Hypnotist, Holistic Naturopath Practitioner, Spiritual Counselor
I work closely with clients with Bipolar as they tend to appreciate a longer support plan where I help lead them through their bipolar episodes. The tools I have in my practice compliment really nicely to help them feel better.

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, Hmong, and East African communities are increasing demand for multilingual and culturally grounded therapists.
