Can't sleep ? I'm a board-certified behavioral sleep psychologist. I work with adults and adolescents who struggle to turn off their minds at night, spend too long trying to fall asleep, or find themselves wide awake at odd hours. Some wake up too early, others can’t get out of bed in the morning, and many feel sluggish throughout the day. Nightmares and vivid dreams disrupt sleep for some and make them dread going to bed. Most have tried hard to solve their sleep problems and may worry that sleeping pills are their only option, or they have found that medications and other substances don’t work as well as they once did.

As a health psychologist, I specialize in the treatment of insomnia , chronic pain, stress/anxiety, and depression.
When it comes to our emotional health, many of us suffer in silence until things have become unmanageable. Unfortunately as children, we don't often get the emotional education that we feel we need; many of us are not taught how to notice, label, or effectively express our emotions. Therapy is a process in which you begin to explore your old patterns and habits, discern those that are no longer serving you, while equipping yourself with more helpful coping skills to add to your toolbox.

Some skills a healer can learn. Others, like compassion and innate understanding of another's inner workings, one must be born with. My focus is on treating anxiety, insomnia , stress and depression using a non-drug based meld of hypnosis/NLP, acupuncture and hormonal balancing. The result of nearly three decades of experience, my book on how to help navigate these issues is "Rewired for Sleep , The 28 Day Insomnia Repair Program" (2020). In it, I clarify that insomnia is usually a symptom of other, repairable problems. Time permitting, I am seeing new patients and happily offer a free consultation.

The sun goes down and you're desperate for sleep . Unfortunately, this is when your thoughts speed up. You're constantly thinking. You think about how much you think. Your mind replays the day's interactions with others, blaming yourself, and reflecting on how others have hurt you. Feeling like you always mess things up. Waiting for the other shoe to always drop. All you crave is a calm mind. A peaceful spirit. And a good night's rest.

Unlike psychiatry where medication is prescribed to block your feelings from being experienced, my practice is designed to make sense and make use of the sensations we are receiving from ourselves. Professionally bringing our attention to psychological symptoms puts us in direct contact with the core of our conflict(s) and sets forth a personal resolution.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists

How effective is treatment for insomnia?

The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?

There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?

There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?

Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
