Pregnancy planning
Some mood stabilizers need special planning before pregnancy. Tell your psychiatrist early if you are thinking about having a child.

Steady bipolar care for Lebanon patients
Bipolar disorder needs continuity. Lebanon patients can keep regular follow-ups by video between in-person visits, which makes it easier to stay on schedule with labs and appointments. If more support is ever needed, we can help connect you with community services such as West Central Behavioral Health.
Living in Lebanon
Lebanon is a regional center for healthcare and technology in the Upper Valley, and many residents cross the Connecticut River for work every day. Because our psychiatrists are licensed in New Hampshire, Lebanon patients plan video visits for times when they are on the New Hampshire side.
Involving family
With your permission, a family member's observations can help, because hypomania is easy to miss from the inside. Families can also learn the early signs of an episode.
Getting care from Lebanon
Our office is in Salem, about an hour and 45 minutes from Lebanon, so most Lebanon patients see us by secure video from home. When an in-person visit is needed, we plan it so the trip is worthwhile.
Frequently asked questions
What if I feel manic right now?
If anyone is at risk, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Otherwise call the office promptly.
Do mood stabilizers need blood tests?
Some do, such as lithium and valproate.
How often are visits?
More often during changes, then every one to three months when stable.
Can I have a video visit while I am in Vermont?
No. Our psychiatrists are licensed in New Hampshire, so you must be physically in New Hampshire during a video visit.
