Living a full, purposeful, powerful life feels out of reach sometimes. Obstacles can get in our way and stop us. Life can be interrupted by poor
sleep
, chronic health issues, or by accidents or health conditions that led to reduced cognitive skills. These conditions can create real stressors, anxiety, depression or reduced ability to cope with the demands of modern living. Your well-being is of the upmost importance to me. Your ability to embrace your life and find joy and creativity can be rekindled despite your circumstances. If you are concerned about your cognitive skills, I can help you find solutions and work arounds.

I specialize in eating disorders, body image, depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, and
sleep
difficulties.
Asking for help can be difficult especially when you pride yourself for being an independent person. When the uncontrollable aspects of life emerge and stick around it can often lead to feeling out of control, stuck, or unproductive even for someone that is usually successful. The truth is that life happens no matter the best of our own intentions and that is where I can work with you to reclaim your ideal life and achieve your goals.

is a disorder that touches every aspect of a person's life. There's nothing more miserable than struggling to
sleep

sleep
at night? It is possible to get sufficient high-quality
sleep
without the use of medication. Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment for
Insomnia
(CBT-I) has been recommended as the first line of treatment for chronic
insomnia
, and I have seen it work in clients from age 15 up to 90+.

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.
