Effective Bipolar Treatment
From periods of extreme highs to intense lows, living with bipolar disorder can feel like an emotional rollercoaster that disrupts daily life. If you or a loved one are struggling to navigate uncontrollable mood swings or severe emotional distress, know that effective, compassionate treatment is available.
Here at Healthy U, we offer comprehensive therapies that help stabilize mood, manage symptoms, and get bipolar disorder under control.
What Is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that’s often characterized by dramatic shifts in:
- Mood
- Activity levels
- Energy
There are different types of bipolar disorder, including bipolar 1 disorder, which is defined by severe manic episodes that may require hospitalization. There’s also bipolar II disorder that typically involves milder manic episodes and prolonged depressive episodes.
Both manic and depressive episodes are highly disruptive, and bipolar disorder will not simply resolve on its own. No matter the type you’re navigating, intensive outpatient therapy is often the most effective treatment approach. With the right support and therapy, achieving stability and leading a healthy life is possible.
Our Approach to Bipolar Disorder Treatment
We take a comprehensive approach to treating this mental health disorder, often combining therapy and medication to help you rebalance.
Individualized Care Plans
Because each person experiences bipolar disorder differently, our licensed clinicians create customized treatment plans. Once we’ve completed your initial assessment, we’ll develop a course of treatment that addresses your symptoms, works for your lifestyle, and achieves your goals.
Evidence-Based Therapies
Our care plans for bipolar disorder include one or a combination of talk therapies, such as:
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT can be an effective tool for those learning to manage bipolar disorder, focusing on changing negative thought patterns and developing coping strategies.
- Medication-assisted treatment (MAT): To help regulate mood swings, MAT may be a beneficial tool in the treatment of bipolar disorder. Our licensed professionals will carefully review your symptoms and medical history to determine if MAT could benefit you.
- Group therapy: Having a strong support system can increase the likelihood of lasting recovery. That's why we offer group therapy sessions, access to our alumni community, and family support programs at no cost to our patients' loved ones.
