How do you work with clients with bipolar disorder?
When working with clients with bipolar disorder, I adopt a comprehensive approach that addresses both acute symptoms and long-term management of the condition. I prioritize building a trusting therapeutic relationship to collaboratively navigate the complexities of bipolar disorder and its impact on the individual's life. Psychoeducation plays a crucial role in bipolar disorder treatment, as I provide clients with information about the illness, its symptoms, triggers, and treatment options. Medication management is often a cornerstone of treatment, with a focus on mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and other psychotropic medications as indicated by the client's presentation and treatment history. Additionally, psychotherapy modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and psychoeducation-focused approaches help clients manage mood symptoms, improve interpersonal relationships, and develop coping strategies for preventing relapse.
Greetings! I'm Dr. Joshua Werblin, a dedicated psychiatrist with a compassionate approach to care. My practice is a sanctuary for individuals of all ages seeking mental wellness. My journey began at The University of Chicago, where I delved into the fundamentals of society and its utopian ideals. I took a somewhat circuitous path from there, working in different fields for nearly a decade before starting to study for my medical degree (M.D.) at Tulane University School of Medicine. During those ten years, I worked variously as a biophysicist, wooden boatbuilder, IT support, astrophysics technical work, and an Auxiliary NYPD officer in Harlem. I completed a Pediatrics Internship at Tulane University, followed by a narrower focus in General Psychiatry Residency training, also at Tulane. I then received subspecialty fellowship training in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Seattle Children's Hospital/University of Washington, followed by the acquisition of Addiction Psychiatry sub-specialization some years later. My career has been diverse, including roles as an Inpatient Psychiatrist, Consult-Liaison Psychiatrist, and several Outpatient Psychiatry positions in New York, Florida, and Maryland. More than half of my career has been spent serving the most underserved and marginalized populations, such as youth and women rescued from the sex trade, runaway youth, homeless families, LGBTQIA++ populations, and undocumented immigrants. Since 2019, I've been proudly serving as 'The Feelings Doctor' in my solo virtual practice, offering psychiatric care for children, adolescents, adults, and those facing addiction challenges. My commitment to you is simple: to provide empathetic, individualized, evidence-based care that supports your unique journey toward mental health wellness, whether or not you choose to use medications along the way. Let's work together to navigate life's challenges and embrace the path to healing and fulfillment.
