When life is challenging, you need a place to stand. To receive support that develops your tools for remembering and connecting with your strength, resources, abilities and hope. You need to feel heard and understood.

You don't need to struggle in silence anymore.

Asking for help is a reflection of your courage. It's an affirmation of your desire to develop your awareness, cultivate your resources and abilities, and learn to use tools that will construct your the life you prefer.

It's so hard for most people to take this stand because obstacles and problems get in the way of who you choose to be. They invite feelings like fear, self-doubt, shame, hopelessness etc into your life.

Seeking help is an empowering opportunity to take a stand for what you do want in your life.

In my eyes, you are not "the problem". You are not a disorder or label.

You are not crazy.

The problem is "the problem". Bipolar Disorder is a problem affecting your life. You are in a relationship with the problems in your life. They impact how you think, feel, do, and respond. You have the ability to influence them and choose how you will respond and participate with them in your life.

Together, we will develop an understanding of how Bipolar Disorder and other problems affect you. Identify what in your life is supporting Bipolar Disorder etc. We'll explore the times when Bipolar Disorder could have gotten the upper hand, but with your strength and resiliency, it failed.

With this understanding we can begin to construct the life that you prefer. We can harness your strength and resources to develop and practice tools that can change your relationship with the problem.

But when problems and Bipolar Disorder feel like a mountain....

And you can't see around them....

You may lose hope....

I'll hold hope for you.
