I keep trying to find the right talk therapist or life coach to help me more forward with my goals, most of which center around understanding and managing my zany mood and energy patterns. I tend to feel a stronger connection with someone else with bipolar disorder than I do a therapist who isn't, and so I've started looking for a fellow-traveller who might want to do mutual mentoring and accountability - keep each other motivated to better manage our challenges, support and advise, provide feedback. Oftentimes I found myself stuck in my own head and thought patterns and it helps just to bounce things off another person, get their perspective, especially if they come from a position of experiencing the world through bp. Not looking to do therapy on each other.

I'm located in the Asheville NC area but I'm open to a remote arrangement.
