How could we have possibly recorded nearly 500 episodes of the podcast without talking about pediatric bipolar?? Unbelievable. That’s why I’m so grateful to have my guest today, Elizabeth Errico, to dive deep into one of the most controversial diagnoses in our field. Elizabeth and I talk about several aspects of pediatric bipolar, including:

  • The history of the diagnosis and why it’s so misunderstood
  • Differentiating pediatric bipolar from ADHD, DMDD, and ODD
  • Communicating with families about a pediatric bipolar diagnosis
  • Treatment options for pediatric bipolar
  • Cool Things Mentioned

    • The Testing Psychologist mastermind groups and business consulting
    • Dr. Charles Popper’s paper on differentiating ADHD from bipolar
    • Demitri Papolos’s work
    • Child Bipolar Questionnaire
    • Janie and Jeffrey illustrated interview for children
    • Pittsburgh Sleep Questionnaire
    • Featured Resource

      About Elizabeth Errico

      Elizabeth founded the Children’s Mental Health Resource Center after more than 20 years as a mental health professional. Throughout those years she saw countless families struggle to find answers and support from a complex mental healthcare system that often ignores or minimizes their concerns. CMHRC grew out of the awareness that these families and their providers deserve better access to information, resources, and expert guidance as they seek accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
