Greg,
What about adding an in-person support group and continuing with one-on-one therapy? Since you've been recently diagnosed with bipolar it might be helpful to locate a group that has an understanding of those issues. The DMDA (Depressive and Manic-Depressive Association - http://www.ndmda.org/) has groups across the US. I was fortunate enough to be involved with a similar group here that has helped in ways that professional therapy cannot.
The key to one-on-one therapy is a good therapist/client fit. My current therapist is probably the best fit I have ever found. He is more strength based/goal oriented, but lets me talk about anything I want. I've been able to talk him about things I've never told anyone and find it a relief. He has a good grasp of Bipolar in addition to a very practical approach.

You've been a great support to so many here. Hope you find what you need.

Blesings,

Chris A.
