Finding creative and healthful ways to better manage stress is a life long reward of recovery from episodes of Bi-Polar Disorder. Educating and coaching are also psychotherapeutic techniques used in my work treating individuals living with Bi-Polar Disorder. Providing unconditional support for positive change is seamlessly woven into the work.
Clients often ask questions about psychiatric medications or other forms of treatments for their mood disorder. With proper consents, I will collaborate with your psychiatrist or other health care provider. If necessary, I will make recommendations for complementary therapies or facilitate referrals to additional health care providers.
