When you suffer from mood swings, your emotional state may change rapidly and frequently. While mood swings can be caused by hormonal shifts, medications, and substance use, they may also be caused by mood disorders, like bipolar disorder.

A licensed therapist can devise a plan to help you discover the source of your mood swings and teach you tactics to overcome them. Wherever you are located in California from Alameda to Yucaipa or even Montclair, or anywhere else nearby, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.
