Bipolar Disorder & the Essential Role of Psychiatric Nurses

Accessing quality care for bipolar disorder can feel overwhelming and confusing.


In this episode of Bipolar Talk, we speak with Torri Taylor-Spencer, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner based in the United States.


Together, we discuss:

  • What psychiatric nurses actually do

  • How they differ from psychiatrists and psychologists

  • Building a care team that truly supports patients

  • Medication, therapy, and long-term stability

  • Why trust and human connection are critical in mental health care

A powerful conversation for anyone affected by bipolar disorder — patients, loved ones, and professionals alike.


🎧 A podcast about turning bipolar disorder into understanding, agency, and hope.
