I also have expertise in helping people who have
sleep
problems-- whether they are sleeping too much, not enough, or not at the right times-- regain a restful healthy
sleep
pattern.
I believe in the healing power of a caring safe relationship. Together we create a safe space where you can feel your feelings without worrying about how they will affect others, where you can learn skills for coping with painful emotions and hard circumstances, and where together we make a plan so you can feel like yourself again. While I tailor what I do in counseling to your needs and goals, my goal is for you to feel more capable of living the life you want as a result of our time together.

Does your brain feel like it never shuts off? Are you irritable all the time, feeling like you might snap at any moment? Are you angry because no matter how much you
sleep
, you feel exhausted every day? Do you feel depressed and/or anxious, but don’t know why? You know you need help, but the last time you reached out all you ended up with was medication that made you feel worse. You’re praying to God for a way to feel happy and energized again, but you want to do it in a natural way. The good news? It’s possible. When I help Christians overcome anxiety and depression, we keep a holistic and biblical view at the center.

The most common form of suffering I see in people is when they no longer trust themselves. If you are struggling with habits that are harmful; whether it be drug or alcohol addiction, eating or spending money in harmful ways, there is hope that you can trust yourself again. Suffering comes in many forms, but for all in pain there is a way to heal and to feel safe again. My job is to help you find that.

During the recent time of shelter in place, we found a need to be connected to others more than ever. For most people, the pandemic increased anxiety, loneliness and stressed our personal and family resources. Many experienced echoes of past trauma that interfered with their present relationships. When anxiety and anger begins to surface, often,the depth of the pain, anger or frustration doesn't make sense. Sometimes it is sadness from grief or a loss from the past or fear of imminent loss. Having grown up in a military family, I understand a lot about adjusting to change and starting over.

People come to see me because they or a loved one have been diagnosed with some form of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Autism in its many forms often presents with unique challenges. Most of these are behavioral in nature, and can affect one's ability to be successful socially, occupationally, and/or in the home setting. People I've worked with in the past include individuals with Autism themselves, who have distinct goals that they'd like to address concerning their behavior. I also work with parents, caregivers, and loved ones who want to know how they can better support the people in their lives.

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.
