Bipolar disorder and other co-occurring disorders can often be treated by inpatient, outpatient, or residential treatment. At AMFM Mental Health Treatment, we believe in the holistic approach to bipolar disorder treatment. This means that our mental health recovery plans treat the whole person, rather than just one piece–psychiatric, psychological/therapeutic, general wellness–we believe in using evidence-based treatment to meet the specific needs of every individual.
For example, simply taking antidepressants or mood stabilizers alone may not be enough for lasting wellness. At AMFM Bipolar Disorder treatment centers, we incorporate holistic treatment to help you or your loved one recover in mind, body, and spirit. Our care plans blend medication management, mental health therapies, and more in a supportive environment with compassionate treatment teams. With over a decade of experience blending evidence-based treatment with holistic therapies to address mental health issues, our mental health programming provides you with coping skills for long-term well-being.
If you or a loved one are looking for the holistic treatment approach to Bipolar Disorder treatment, contact us at AMFM today. Our treatment programs for bipolar disorder are designed to help meet your unique needs.
Bipolar Disorder is defined by the American Psychological Association as a “serious mental illness in which common emotions become intensely and often unpredictably magnified.”1 Bipolar disorder is often characterized by mood swings from high-energy, euphoric states, to lows of sadness, exhaustion, and major depression, and the shift between these two phases can grow to be so intense that an individual may consider suicide. Studies have shown that individuals living with Bipolar Disorder are at increased risk to attempt suicide at least once in their life, by 25-60%.2
We accept most major insurance providers and can check your coverage levels for you.
If we are not an appropriate provider for care, we will assist in finding a care provider that can help.
Hypomania refers to a shorter duration of manic symptoms, with generally milder symptoms. In order to be diagnosed with Bipolar II, an individual must experience at least one episode of hypomania, in addition to an episode of depression (manic depression). According to the DSM-5, hypomanic episodes are common in Bipolar I Disorder as well, but are not required for the diagnosis of Bipolar I.
In order to be diagnosed with Bipolar II, an individual must experience both a hypomanic and a depressive episode. Depressive episodes are characterized by low moods, suicidal thoughts, or other common symptoms of depression like loss of interest, low self-esteem, fatigue, or changes in appetite. If you or a loved one are struggling with suicidal ideation and need immediate medical assistance, please call 911 for emergency medical attention, or 988, the National Suicide and Crisis hotline, which is available 24/7, free of cost.
Inpatient Treatment for Bipolar Disorder refers to residential, or live-in mental health care programming in a facility. Inpatient treatment allows you or your loved one to engage in interpersonal therapy with licensed therapists and group therapy sessions, while healing in a safe and supportive environment. Inpatient mental health programming for anxiety usually also provides the highest level of care, with 24/7 clinical care, psychiatry and medication management, and personalized treatment plans for lasting well-being.
Outpatient Treatment (IOP or PHP) programs offer comprehensive mental health care at a more flexible schedule, with both in-person and virtual options available. Unlike residential care, intensive outpatient treatment can offer online therapy and programming, but without 24/7 clinical teams on staff. Outpatient treatment plans still offer a combination of individual and group therapy, through a holistic approach, but in a less structured environment.
If you have been struggling with one or more of the anxiety symptoms we have mentioned, know that you’re not alone. A Mission For Michael Mental Health Treatment has admission counselors available around the clock to help determine which treatment options can assist you in managing anxiety.

Therapy for Bipolar Disorder is a key piece of effective treatment for a greater quality of life and emotional regulation with this lifelong condition, and may help you or your loved one with executive functioning throughout the day. Seeking care from a mental health professional can help regulate extreme mood episodes for a long-term lifestyle change. AMFM Mental Health Treatment offers a combination of holistic mental health services and evidence-based therapies to provide treatment options that meet your individual needs:
Individual therapy takes place in a one on one setting with a licensed professional, usually consisting of a combination of dialectical and cognitive behavioral therapies, in which a person can talk through his or her individual struggles. Individual therapy and mental health care is one of the most crucial steps for those facing mental health challenges.
Group therapy sessions can be used to help provide structured times to help you understand that you are not alone in your struggles, that your peers are also walking through these challenges, while also providing guidance, suggestions and communications from psychologists with specialized backgrounds. These groups can span a variety of backgrounds, including but not limited to art therapy, somatic therapy, and narrative therapy.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of therapy that’s focused on restructuring and reprogramming maladaptive and negative thought processes. Psychologists are trained to help you change your cognitive and emotional processes in order to outgrow coping mechanisms that may no longer be serving you.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is most commonly referred to as “talk therapy,” and is designed to help process emotions. Qualified professionals offer psychological therapy to move forward with healthy ways of engaging in interpersonal relationships and alleviating physical and emotional distress.
TMS Therapy is a type of therapy that uses magnetic pulses to treat depression by stimulating neurotransmitters in the brain. This is a noninvasive method of treatment that some mental health programs offer for treatment of depression, bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Family therapy may be used when a loved one’s mental health symptoms are affecting others. This can increase a family members’ understanding of anxiety and talk about how to support each other. Family-focused therapy sessions and support groups can improve communication patterns, focus on problem-solving, address unresolved conflicts, and increase the sense of understanding among one another.
AMFM Mental Health Treatment provides comprehensive psychiatric care for bipolar disorder, along with traditional therapeutic modalities. Our on-staff clinicians are equipped to design personalized treatment plans for your continued success. In combination with psychotherapy, psychiatric care is handled safely, to help you or your loved one overcome mental health challenges.
For over half a century, Lithium has been used as a mood stabilizer to treat bipolar disorder, treating both the manic episodes as well as the bipolar depression.6 However, Lithium treatment can have side effects and complications in long-term use on the kidney and thyroid, and it’s important that an individual keep his or her clinical team in the loop on any side effects as they come up.
Antidepressants and antipsychotics are both commonly used (alone and in tandem) in the treatment of Bipolar Disorder as mood stabilizers. However, rapid cycling is sometimes a side effect that is associated with antidepressant treatment in bipolar disorder.7 Conventional antipsychotics have been proven to be effective for short-term treatment of Bipolar Disorder, but there has been little research on the long-term efficacy of antipsychotics and antidepressants for individuals living with bipolar disorder.
