Customized support to enhance relationships, reduce symptoms, and promote wellness.

Couples

Whether you are looking to reconnect as a couple, reduce conflict, work together to help manage bipolar symptoms, or cope with a specific problem, couple's therapy can help partners to:

• Increase emotional connection
• Escape negative cycles of conflict
• Understand bipolar disorder
• Collaborate in managing bipolar disorder
• Cope with stressful transitions
• Overcome unresolved issues
• Face the challenges of parenthood
  

Partners

Sometimes partners can benefit from individual therapy to cope with life and relationship stress.  Services are available
to both partners that honors their unique experiences and role as a diagnosed or non-diagnosed partner. 

Individual services are also available to diagnosed individuals not currently involved in a romantic relationship to develop insight into how bipolar disorder has affected past relationships in order to build a foundation for connection in the future.

Groups

Workshops and ongoing groups are available to provide couples, partners, and family members with information to better understand and cope with the challenges of bipolar disorder.

Couple relationships are challenging, so is managing bipolar disorder.  Sometimes it helps to know you are not alone and receive feedback from others with similar struggles.  Online support groups are available for couples and partners together or separately. 

Please Note: Therapy with Dr. Bordieri is available to NY, NJ and CA state residents only, but psychoeducation groups are open to all. 
Dr. Bordieri can also work together with you and your current therapist, and may be able to connect you with a local therapist to collaborate with her in your treatment.
