WHAT WE TREAT

Bipolar Disorder

Meera received an Honorary Doctorate in 2022 (Honoris Causa) of Advanced Studies in Psychology due to her groundbreaking research and work with Bipolar Disorder and the development of Environmental Stress-Targeted Therapy, EVSTT, the first treatment protocol for patients with Bipolar Disorder to include clinical hypnosis and target the fight-or-flight stress response associated with this disorder with proven evidence-based results. She has identified a third theory of causation linked to the stress response.

Her new effective treatment is called Environmental Stress Targeted Therapy (EVSTT), and she conducted a small clinical research study in 2019 utilizing this new treatment protocol with clients with both bipolar l and bipolar ll disorder, and these clients experienced tremendous evidence based results.

This is a 4-6 month treatment plan that utilizes counselling, talk therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and clinical hypnosis to effectively reduce the severity and frequency of hypomanic, manic, and depressive episodes. DBT may also be incorporated into a client’s treatment plan, if required.

Clients with Bipolar Disorder are expected to continue on all prescribed medications during and following treatment, and continue all follow up appointments with their treating psychiatrist.

This is therapy, and always adjunct to the pharmacological treatment plan developed and monitored by the treating clinician
