Bipolar Disorder Therapy & Treatment Washington, DC

We can help manage mood swings.

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition characterized by extreme mood swings, encompassing emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). At the Capital Institute, we have extensive experience in treating bipolar disorder, typically through a combination of medication and psychotherapy.

During depressive episodes, individuals may experience feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a loss of interest or pleasure in most activities. Conversely, during manic or hypomanic phases (which are less severe than full mania), they may feel euphoric, energetic, or unusually irritable.

These mood swings can occur infrequently or multiple times within a year, and while most people may experience some emotional symptoms between episodes, others may not experience any. Despite being a lifelong condition, effective management of mood swings and other symptoms is achievable by following a structured treatment plan.
