Living with bipolar disorder
can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. Bipolar disorder is a complex mental health condition that causes extreme shifts between emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). These mood swings can disrupt daily routines, strain personal relationships, and affect your ability to work or attend school. At The Willows at Red Oak Recovery®, our bipolar disorder treatment program is designed to help young women manage their symptoms, regain control of their lives, and pursue long-term wellness. Reach out today to discover our women’s mental health.
How Is Bipolar Disorder Treated?
The most effective treatment for bipolar disorder combines therapy, medication, and a supportive environment tailored to your needs. At The Willows, we provide a holistic approach to recovery that addresses both the symptoms and the underlying factors contributing to your condition.
Here, you’ll work with experienced clinicians who’ll create a personalized treatment plan just for you. We incorporate evidence-based bipolar disorder therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), to help you better understand and manage your emotions. Many clients also benefit from mindfulness practices, including yoga and meditation, which can improve overall mental well-being.
Besides traditional therapies, we offer experiential activities like hiking, horseback riding, and art therapy. These activities not only enhance emotional regulation but also help you reconnect with yourself in healthy, meaningful ways.
Our long-term program spans over 90 days and includes aftercare planning, ensuring you’re supported through every step of your healing process.
What Medication Is Given for Bipolar?
Medication plays a critical role in stabilizing mood swings and managing bipolar disorder effectively. The type of medication you may receive depends on your specific symptoms and needs, but common options include:
- Mood stabilizers
- Antipsychotics
- Antidepressants
Our medical team monitors your progress closely, adjusting prescriptions as needed to ensure your safety and comfort.
We combine medication management with therapy so you can address the full scope of your condition. This integrated approach promotes balance, reduces the intensity of mood episodes, and supports your everyday functioning.
