Sleep isn't a luxury - It’s the foundation of everything else you do. When you aren't sleeping, every other challenge in your life feels twice as heavy. As one of a small number of psychologists board-certified in Behavioral Sleep Medicine (DBSM), I provide a specialized level of care for sleep and performance concerns. I work primarily with individuals who feel like they’ve tried many traditional approaches for their sleep and are looking for something more targeted. My focus is on using evidence-based, short-term protocols (such as CBT-I) to help you reset your body’s natural ability to rest.
With a background in Sport and Performance Psychology, I also have a unique focus on those navigating high-stakes environments—from competitive athletes and performers to healthcare workers and traveling professionals.
I understand the specific challenges of trying to maintain health and performance when your schedule is unpredictable, your stress is high, and standard advice doesn't always fit your reality.
