My focus is on identifying negative thought patterns and developing more adaptive ways of thinking.
I also help clients establish a balanced and healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, proper nutrition, and good sleep habits.
Extreme mood swings, severe insomnia, feeling like there is a loss of self, physical agitation, grandiosity, delusions, and struggles in maintaining relationships are usual pain points for those experiencing bipolar disorders.
The types of bipolar disorders I address include bipolar I disorder, bipolar II disorder, and cyclothymic disorder (cyclothymia).
The common symptoms for bipolar disorders that are treated in therapy are:
Increased Energy
Decreased Need for Sleep
Racing Thoughts
Excessive Involvement in Pleasurable Activities
Sadness & Emptiness
Poor Concentration
Changes in Appetite
Feelings of Despair
