Conditions
Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder involves shifts in mood, energy, and thinking. Intense highs with racing thoughts can be followed by lows that feel impossible to push through. It is often misdiagnosed as depression, which can lead to treatments that make things worse.
We evaluate for patterns of mood changes throughout your life. Getting the diagnosis right matters, because the wrong treatment can make things worse. We'll build our plan together based on the latest research, and we're always just a call away.
Bipolar disorder is commonly misdiagnosed and treated as another condition. Many patients arrive after years on antidepressants, which can make bipolar symptoms worse. We look at how you responded to past treatments, and we'll build a new approach together.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most of our patients pay between $20 and $50 per visit with insurance. We accept most major PPO plans, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare, Oscar, Optum, Oxford, and UMR.
If you're not sure whether your plan is covered, call us at 888-813-3543 and we'll check for you before your first visit.
Your first visit is a full psychiatric evaluation, usually around 60 minutes. Your provider will ask about your symptoms, medical history, past treatments, medications, and what's going on in your life right now. By the end of that visit, you'll have a clear picture of the plan going forward.
It depends on what's going on and what treatment looks like for you. Some patients notice changes within the first few weeks of starting or adjusting medications, but finding the right fit can take time. Your provider monitors your progress closely and makes adjustments along the way rather than waiting months between visits.
No need for a referral. You can get started by booking a free consultation through our website or by calling 888-813-3543. Most patients are seen within a few days of reaching out.
