While it is common for people to experience mood changes from time to time, bipolar disorder is much more severe. When someone has bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression), their mood shifts between periods of elevated or highly energized mood (manic or hypomanic episodes) and periods of depression.

During manic episodes, a person may feel unusually energetic, confident, and active, often needing less sleep. These periods can alternate with depressive phases that involve low mood, loss of interest in activities, changes in sleep or appetite, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.

Living with bipolar disorder can be challenging, but many people learn ways to better understand and manage mood changes and build stability over time. Our online therapy program uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles to help people better understand their thoughts, behaviors, and emotional patterns. CBT is often used as a supportive approach alongside medical care. With guidance from a therapist, you can learn to recognize early warning signs of mood changes, develop healthier coping strategies, and build routines that support emotional stability. By increasing awareness of potential triggers and learning practical skills, many people find it easier to manage stress and maintain a more balanced daily life.

People experiencing symptoms of bipolar disorder should consult qualified healthcare professionals for proper evaluation and care.

"Bernadette has been a life saver for me. I've been in and out of therapy for as long as I can remember and none can compare to my experience here. By completing the courses, daily journaling and weekly sessions with Bernadette, I feel more hopeful than I have in a very long time. I'd recommend this program to ANYONE looking for an alternative therapy option"
