Patients and families often have questions about what to expect from a bipolar disorder Midtown therapist. Here are some common questions and answers.
Bipolar disorder requires ongoing management. Many patients notice symptom improvement within weeks of starting medication, though finding the optimal combination can take several months. The treatment providers at Principium recommend continuing care even after stabilization, as consistent treatment significantly reduces future episode risk.
TMS therapy shows promising results for bipolar depression when traditional antidepressants prove insufficient. This noninvasive treatment uses magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive brain regions associated with mood regulation. Sessions last about 40 to 60 minutes, and most patients complete treatment over four to six weeks.
While both conditions benefit from mood stabilizers and psychotherapy, Bipolar I often requires more aggressive intervention during manic episodes. Bipolar II treatment typically focuses on addressing depressive phases. Dr. Cohen and the team at Principium tailor medication selection and therapy approaches based on your specific diagnosis.
Our office at 110 East 42nd Street, Suite 1818, sits steps from Grand Central Terminal, making psychiatric care accessible during your workday or commute. Principium Psychiatry accepts most major insurance plans for TMS therapy.
