Ep. 58 Fostering Understanding and Support in the Bipolar Journey with Sandhya Nagabhushan (Accepting new clients in TX, MD, VA, DC)

The TeleWellness Hub Podcast

When personal experiences blend with professional skills, understanding gets richer. Sandhya Sharma from Enlightenment Therapy Services LLC is here with me, Marta Hamilton, to talk about bipolar disorder in a clear and caring way.

Sandhya's background in holistic therapy and EMDR therapy helps her connect deeply with people. She draws from her own family's struggles with mental illness, especially within the Indian American community. Our talk goes beyond just medical talk. We're here to give you a kind perspective on how resilient and creative people with bipolar disorder can be.

Living with bipolar disorder is like sailing in rough seas, but Sandhya helps us find a smoother path. We talk about spotting triggers like changes in sleep and stress, and how therapy and medicine can help. Sandhya also explains cool therapies like EMDR and mindfulness, and why having supportive people around is crucial. We even dip into the science of epigenetics to understand how it plays a role in bipolar disorder. And for family members trying to help, we share tips on being supportive, especially during manic episodes.

We end our chat by focusing on making schools and workplaces better for people with bipolar disorder. We talk about how it affects relationships and why talking openly and getting therapy together can help. We hope to see a future where we talk about mental health just as easily as physical health, and where there's less stigma around it.
