Bipolar disorders | Universitätsklinikum Tübingen

Special consultation for bipolar disorders

The special consultation for bipolar disorders at the University Hospital for Psychiatry and Psychotherapy in Tübingen offers comprehensive, detailed diagnostics including detailed current and biographical anamnesis. The diagnosis, which can also be supplemented if necessary by procedures such as blood sampling, brain wave measurement (EEG) or cardiac waveform (ECG), enables a clear classification of your symptoms. Based on the results, you will receive an individual treatment recommendation that includes suitable psychotherapeutic and/or drug treatment options. Last but not least, this includes psychoeducational elements, which are intended to provide you with comprehensive knowledge about causes, trigger situations, symptoms and treatment strategies. In addition, we are also happy to make therapy suggestions for further treatment by a colleague you trust.

Medicinal treatment
In the course of the medical consultations, you will receive advice on drug therapy in accordance with the latest treatment standards.
