I have been in private practice since 1985. I am a general adult psychiatrist and see those age 13 and older. I am one of the "dinosaurs" who still do psychotherapy as well as medication. I see individuals, couples, and families. Although the majority of my patients see me for mood disorders and anxiety, I have had a special interest in eating disorders since training. My practice has solely been outpatient for many years, thus inpatient care would have to be transferred temporarily to another physician. (note: I am an out-of-network provider; fees range from $140-320, depending on service, see below.)

FAQ - Sleep or Insomnia Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with insomnia?
Insomnia, characterized by difficulty falling or staying asleep, can be a debilitating condition that can impact all areas of one's life. It can be normal for many individuals to face short periods of insomnia during times of acute stress, and these episodes will often resolve on their own without intervention with medication or therapy. However, when sleeping difficulties become chronic, it may signal a need for intervention. The first-line treatment for insomnia is behavioral and lifestyle modifications that promote sleep; these are often referred to as "sleep hygiene" and can include practices like establishing a consistent nighttime routine, limiting caffeine intake, engaging in regular exercise, and limiting screen use directly before bed. However, if these interventions are not successful in alleviating insomnia, individuals may choose to see a psychiatrist who specializes in insomnia to help manage their symptoms, often through a combination of medication and therapy.
How do psychiatrists treat insomnia?
Psychiatrists specializing in insomnia have particular expertise in managing sleep-related conditions; in some cases, clients may also opt to see a psychiatrist who has expertise in a condition that may be contributing to their insomnia, such as anxiety or trauma. Depending on what a psychiatrist assesses as the underlying cause(s) of the client's insomnia, they may recommend a variety of treatment regimens. The severity of the client's insomnia and the degree to which it's impacting their everyday functioning will often determine what type of medication, if any, is prescribed. For clients whose insomnia is largely the result of another mental health condition, such as depression, the psychiatrist may work to manage that condition first to assess whether that resolves the insomnia.
How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in sleep issues?
To find a psychiatrist who specializes in insomnia, you can use the Psychology Today online directory "filter" function to search for professionals with expertise in sleep or insomnia. You may also filter by additional specialties that may be relevant, such as anxiety or depression, or therapist identity that is important to you, such as gender or cultural identity. When searching for a provider, it can be helpful to ask about their specific expertise in treating insomnia and inquire about their approach to medication and behavioral interventions. It is also important to determine whether their office is accessible (either close-by or via telehealth) and if they accept your insurance.
