A Bipolar Disorder Assessment is a thorough evaluation used to diagnose and comprehend bipolar disorder symptoms such as Bipolar I, Bipolar II, and cyclothymia. Bipolar disorder is defined by severe mood swings that alternate between manic or hypomanic periods and depressed episodes. Our examination assists clients in identifying symptoms, determining the severity of their impact on life, and developing a personalised treatment plan.
