While it is common for people to experience mood swings from time to time, bipolar disorder is much more severe. When someone has bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression) their mood shifts from periods of over-excitement and feeling like you're "on fire" (manic episodes) to periods of feeling severely depressed (depressive episodes).

During manic episodes, it's common to have a generally elevated mood, be highly active, experience higher self-esteem and need less sleep. This often alternates with depressive periods where you feel little joy in life, have problems sleeping, gain or lose weight and experience a loss of energy.

While this can be stressful and even debilitating, there is hope. Our therapy for bipolar is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which has been shown in research studies to help people with bipolar disorder, often used in conjunction with medication. You see, it is your thoughts that affect your perception of the world, and with bipolar disorder, your brain tends to process information in an inaccurate and distorted way. With the help of your therapist, you will be able to identify and challenge these distorted and negative thought patterns that cause your stress and even harmful behavior. By identifying the situations that trigger your manic and depressive episodes, you will be more aware of when a mood shift is about to happen. And, eventually, you will be able to control your emotions and stress. By discovering new coping and behavioral skills, you will be able to stick to a treatment plan and live a more stable lifestyle, which will reduce the risks of a relapse.

"I love the price point and that it allows me to schedule and know I will have 4 appointments in a month. I loved the quick matching with a therapist and the accessibility of changing my therapist easily whenever I feel its needed. The video session interface is easy to use and was clear though at times there was a voice echo (will be doing next session on laptop to compare connections); overall I am enjoying the accessibility of this service as well as the help I receive from my therapist here!"

"I think it's great since it's not just therapy sessions, but also messages, videos, worksheets, journal, activity calendar etc. I think it's a great program and my therapist responds to my messages in a timely manner and is very helpful in our video sessions. She said she's seen improvement in me (and so has my mom) and I have seen it, too. I'm very grateful for starting this experience and I want to continue for another 2 or 3 months."

"My therapy experience has been overwhelmingly positive and genuinely life‑changing. From the very first session, I felt heard, respected, and supported. The environment has always felt safe and welcoming, making it easy to open up and explore things at my own pace.
What I appreciate most is the balance of compassion and practical guidance. I’ve gained tools that actually work in my day‑to‑day life—strategies that help me communicate more clearly, understand myself better, and navigate challenges with more confidence. I’ve noticed real growth in how I think, respond, and care for myself.
Every session leaves me feeling lighter, more grounded, and more capable. I’m grateful for the progress I’ve made and for the steady, thoughtful support that helped me get here. This has been one of the best investments I’ve made in my well‑being, and I’d wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone looking for meaningful, sustainable change."

"The course I went through has taught me the tools and techniques needed to successfully navigate my anxieties. I realize this is a life long journey and I need to be diligent in using the tools and to be honest with myself. The therapist I had for this education was fantastic. She was knowledgeable, caring and took the time to help me understand fully the steps and course material. I am thankful for her help and her ability to be non judge-mental and sympathetic to my issues. I realize everyone is different, this course helped me greatly."
