Living with Bipolar Disorder means managing dramatic shifts in mood, energy, and functioning — from depressive lows to manic or hypomanic highs. At VICC Psychiatry, we deliver tailored, evidence-based care for individuals with bipolar I, bipolar II, and related mood disorders in both remote and in-office settings.

Types

  • Bipolar I Disorder (full manic episodes, often alternating with depressive episodes)
  • Bipolar II Disorder (hypomania plus depressive episodes)
  • Cyclothymic Disorder (milder mood swings over longer periods)
  • Rapid-cycling bipolar (four or more mood episodes in a year)
  • Mixed features (symptoms of mania and depression simultaneously)

Treatment(s)

  • Thorough psychiatric evaluation and mood-tracking history
  • Medication management (mood stabilizers such as lithium, valproate; atypical antipsychotics; adjunctive antidepressants as needed)
  • Telepsychiatry follow-ups for dose adjustments and symptom monitoring
  • Psychoeducation about triggers, sleep hygiene, lifestyle stabilization
  • Psychotherapy support (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy)
  • Collaborative care for co-existing conditions (anxiety, ADHD, substance use)

If you’re seeking stability, hope, and a personalized pathway to managing bipolar disorder, VICC Psychiatry is here to help. Schedule your evaluation now and move toward balanced mood and improved quality of life.
