Welcome To Bipolar Coaching

Welcome,

my name is Samantha Smirin.

Author of “Life Interrupted – A Bipolar Memoir” and bipolar coach driven to assist those living with bipolar and their supporters.

30 years ago, just after being diagnosed with bipolar, I began a life of shame hiding myself from the world.  I got lost in dangerous corridors of denial and loathed who I seemed to have become. 

30 years later I am a bipolar coach and publicly disclosed, unashamed, stable and happy and working tirelessly to help people affected by bipolar.  I started my work by publishing my acclaimed book “Life Interrupted – A Bipolar Memoir”

"Life Interrupted - A Bipolar Memoir"

I decided it was time to write a very honest story about Bipolar.  A story from someone who lived it, not someone who studied it.

I am here to be of service to two groups of clients

  • People living with bipolar who are experiencing a hopeless and undependable life and seeking ways to manage their lives.
  • Family members and loved ones of people living with bipolar who are experiencing anxiety and confusion.

 

My unique positioning is that I am not a psychologist or a psychiatrist.  Rather I am a person living with bipolar who has 30 years of facing this often devastating illness.

I offer my decades of lived bipolar experience ensuring genuine empathy, reassurance and evidence that bipolar can be managed so as to thrive in life.

I have experienced personal transformation resulting in a thriving, well chosen life. 

I care because I’ve been there.
