Bipolar Recovery Coaching

Bipolar Recovery Coaching is a unique, individualized program to assist in your recovery from the devastating symptoms of Bipolar Illness.

According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI):

• "In one study, the average lifetime cost per case ranged from $11,720 for persons with a single manic episode to $624,785 for persons with nonresponsive or chronic episodes."

• Bipolar is the most expensive mental healthcare diagnosis both for patients, and their insurance companies, and is the 6th leading cause of disability worldwide.

  Bipolar Recovery Coaching is for those who:

  • Have recently been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and don't know what type of treatment plan to follow.
  • Have been taking a cocktail of psychiatric medications and are still experiencing bipolar symptoms and mood episodes.
  • Are tired of the debilitating side effects of psychiatric medications and are seeking natural and complimentary treatments.
  • Reject the idea that Bipolar Disorder is a chronic, life-long illness that will require drugs for the rest of their lives.
  • Are ready to take full control of their lives and their health by learning to live in a disciplined and balanced manner, giving full support to their mind and body.
  • Want to try a model of recovery, rather than blindly accepting that traditional approaches are the only way.

  "Before starting bipolar recovery coaching with Ben, I was at my wits end. My life was disintegrating, and I was very close to driving away the most important people in my life for good. I knew I desperately needed help, but I also knew the standard treatment options being offered were not for me. Therapists and psychiatrists alike said medication was absolutely necessary to regain stability, while something in my gut said just the opposite. I knew there had to be another way to wellness.

  Fortunately, in searching for an alternative approach, I found Ben's site. Shortly after starting the steps in his Alternative Bipolar Treatment Plan, I began weekly therapy and EFT coaching sessions with Ben. In the six months since, he has helped me completely change my way of being in the world. I've rediscovered what it means to enjoy my life. My days are once again relatively peaceful, and I no longer live in constant fear of lapsing into another violent episode of mania or depression. There is still work to do, but I now feel confident in my ability to stay on track.

  Simply put, Ben is an extremely gifted therapist with an unbelievable ability to get to the heart of the matter using EFT - and he is an expert at providing guidance for bipolar people. He has helped me resolve issues that were unresolved in years of standard talk therapy; many of which were huge triggers for me, making resolution crucial to building a foundation of stability. He listens, he gives his gentle input and guidance, and he helps you develop the tools and knowledge to heal yourself. He is by far the most accessible and transformational therapist I have ever dealt with.

  Whether you are at your wits end because standard treatment is not helping you, or you are newly diagnosed and looking for an alternative approach, do yourself a favor and give Ben a call. I will be forever thankful that I did just that (and for what it's worth, my sessions are remote, as I couldn't find anyone supporting an alternative treatment approach locally - this has not diminished my results one bit!)"

  What Does Bipolar Recovery Coaching involve?

  We will design an individualized coaching plan during our first phone session. (You may opt to communicate with Audio and Visual communication through Skype, or only by phone).

  Most people will have weekly one hour sessions. It is up to you whether to utilize medications prescribed by your medical doctor, or you may choose to use nutritional supplements such as EMPower Plus from TrueHope.

  I do not advise you on the use of your medication, as I am not a medical doctor, however I will support you in making the best choices for yourself, and will work towards empowering you to free yourself from dependencies of all kinds.

  In addition to problem solving, we will identify core issues to work on and you will learn Energy Psychology techniques such as EFT/Meridian Tapping. We will utilize these methods during our sessions, to alleviate:

  • Stress or all kinds
  • Depressive symptoms
  • Anxiety
  • Tension and Worry
  • Anger issues
  • Past unresolved traumas
  • Insomnia
  • Relationship and Family issues
  • Any unresolved emotional issue that worsen or trigger your bipolar condition.

    Are you are really ready to work on yourself and improve your quality of life?
    This is a commitment. Without your full commitment, I cannot help you, and it would be better for you to wait until you are ready.
