Speciality counseling services?

Hi party people,

I'm a bipolar townie struggling to find good mental health services. I have a great med-management and social services team, but I haven't had any luck finding bipolar-specific specialized therapy. I have already sought help to find this resource from multiple organizations in town without success.

I am looking for a provider with experience or knowledge of IPSRT (interpersonal social rythmn therapy). Most therapists in Athens have something to the effect of "we all need a little support with CBT sometimes!" which is awesome for SSRI takers, not great for antipsychotic takers 😅 Honestly, any provider with proven experience w/ bipolar care sounds great at this point.

Anybody know a great therapist for bipolar folks in the area? I'm willing to drive to Atlanta for good care. Sliding scale options would be helpful as I am uninsured and can only work part time, but if I gotta pay to get the care I need, it is what it is.

Advantage is not an option and I will not be seeking their services from any level 👍
