Are you feeling activated, overwhelmed, or unable to shake what you’ve recently seen or learned about abuse, exploitation, or institutional betrayal? When public revelations bring graphic or disturbing realities into focus, they can stir up anxiety, anger, grief, or old trauma you thought you had already worked through. You may notice heightened vigilance, emotional flooding, or a loss of trust in people and systems. Therapy can help you make sense of these reactions, restore a sense of safety, and ground yourself again.

You are highly capable and self-aware, but intelligence can’t always "think" its way out of an emotional loop. For many, analytical over-thinking is a survival strategy that causes more fatigue than clarity, fueling cycles of anxiety and depression.
You don't need me to tell them what to think; I am here to help move beyond knowing what to do to actual change. We will bridge the gap between insight and integration to help you feel as good as you "know" you should. Let’s turn your self-awareness into a tool for transformation rather than exhaustion.

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.
