Bipolar disorder often produces many symptoms and consequences, and so often needs many types of treatment, both medication and psychotherapy. The major forms of psychotherapy studied in bipolar disorder are Psychoeducation (teaching key illness management techniques), Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy, and Family-Focussed Therapy.
Each of these approaches has some value, but:

During this presentation, Dr. Sagar Parikh provides a clear summary about each of the major psychotherapy treatments, how they compare in terms of research studies, and how they compare in terms of style and practicality. Some tips on how to choose a therapist are also highlighted.

Mental Health is one aspect of an employees well-being. It important to create a culture and workplace where it's acceptable to talk about our Mental Health and eliminate the Stigma.
Many symptoms of addictions and personality disorders overlap. As with any diagnosis, one of the key areas for investigation is---What function does (or did) this seemingly unhelpful---behavior provide, and what healthier alternatives are available, or interventions to make this behavior unnecessary. (For example, improving self esteem can reduce fears of abandonment and unlovability which underscore many of the symptoms we will discuss)

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Eliminate or mitigate triggers and vulnerabilities
Treatment compliance is a huge issue because
