Bipolar depression has a strange way of taking over your life. The shifts between feeling energized and unstoppable and feeling overwhelmed and unable to function can cost you your life. At Alter Behavioral Health San Diego, we believe that bipolar disorder is a treatable condition. All you need is a clear understanding of the client’s individual struggle: structure, skilled care, and understanding. Our team provides evidence-based treatment that combines empathy with science to help you reclaim your life, and they’re in it.
The reason people delay seeking help is that they don’t understand bipolar disorder. They tend to minimize it with comments like “everybody has mood swings,” but we know it is much more than that. The complications of this disorder must be acknowledged before any treatment is prescribed. At Alter Behavioral Health, we make real progress by helping you understand what you need: safety, stability, and finding control over your life, even if it seems hard.
When it comes to bipolar disorder, it affects everyone differently. In some patients, the depressive episodes are longer, while for others, it is the heightened energy and restlessness that affects their lives the most. We honor your experience and customize your appointment to your life. Our client-centric approach is not only compassionate, but it is also backed by years of research. We help you overcome the highs and lows, allowing you to manage your life better.

We provide 24/7 medical and therapeutic support so you can regain control of your mind and prepare for the next step.

We help you develop healthy routines and offer peer support so you can build long-term resolutions in the process.
At Alter Behavioral Health, we offer a Partial Hospitalization Program to ensure that you get the treatment you need while also allowing you to return home at night. This system incorporates structure and daily support without disrupting your life.
With IOP, you get a more flexible approach to therapy sessions, as they are scheduled out over weeks. During this time, you can manage work, school, and other family responsibilities while also prioritizing your mental health. IOP helps you stay accountable while supporting your life and goals.
