Mood disorders, such as depression, bipolar disorder, and cyclothymia, affect a person’s emotional state, causing significant shifts in mood, energy, and behavior. These disorders can make it difficult to experience joy, maintain relationships, or perform daily tasks, leading to a decreased quality of life. Depression often manifests as persistent feelings of sadness, worthlessness, and a lack of interest in activities once enjoyed. Bipolar disorder, on the other hand, is characterized by extreme mood swings, alternating between manic episodes of heightened energy, impulsivity, and euphoria, and depressive episodes marked by intense sadness, fatigue, and hopelessness.

I provide a comprehensive approach to treating mood disorders, recognizing that every individual’s experience is unique. Through a combination of psychotherapy, tailored coping strategies, and when necessary, medication management, we can work together to help you understand and manage your emotions. I take the time to explore the underlying causes of your mood fluctuations, which can be tied to genetic, environmental, or psychological factors. By addressing both the symptoms and root causes, my goal is to help you develop tools for emotional regulation, build resilience, and restore a sense of balance and stability. In a safe, compassionate space, we can work toward improving your mental and emotional health, ultimately helping you lead a more fulfilling and peaceful life.
