It’s exhausting to lie awake at night then push yourself through a long day. Over and over again. Although this may be the pattern now, it doesn’t have to continue. I work with people who know firsthand that sleep hygiene can't always fix sleep problems. People who have seen every hour on the clock at night and still "get up and go" the next day. My clients are the people who have done everything in their power to improve sleep and are still ready to try something else. They might show up yawning, but they are ready and willing to change their habits for the sake of getting good-quality, restful sleep.
Sleep is truly magical, and I want to bring that magic back for folks with a tense relationship with sleep. To help you get better sleep quality and more actual sleep, I use treatments that change your actions, thoughts, and emotions related to sleep. We can do this in as few as 4 sessions
When you're ready, book a call with me. I'll listen to your sleep problems, answer all your sleep questions, and get you started with a long-term plan for better sleep.

I help people struggling with sleep issues as well as mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. For sleep concerns, treatment is typically about 6-8 sessions and highly targeted. For general psychotherapy, I use an "episode of care" approach that includes about 12 sessions followed by a goals-check session where we discuss our next steps.
