At Los Angeles Outpatient Center (LAOP), we provide specialized treatment for Bipolar Disorder, helping individuals manage mood swings and achieve stability. Our comprehensive approach combines evidence-based therapies and holistic practices to support your journey toward balanced mental health.
What Is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar Disorder is a mental health condition characterized by extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). These mood shifts can affect sleep, energy levels, behavior, judgment, and the ability to think clearly. Bipolar Disorder can severely impact daily functioning and relationships. Effective treatment is crucial to manage these mood episodes and improve overall quality of life.
