I have also been trained in CBT-I and can offer a short term focused treatment for those struggling with chronic insomnia.
Have you recently had a baby or is your due date right around the corner? The excitement is probably starting to wear off and the exhaustion and fears are setting in.

I am a licensed clinical social worker that focuses on providing supportive, nonjudgmental therapy in a comfortable environment for new parents. This can be a scary time for everyone and it is important to remember that you do not have to go through it alone.

With just 2 to 4 sessions we see phobias, and fears dissipate even as sleep improves (my Amazon best-seller is "Rewired for Sleep, The 28 Day Insomnia Repair Program).
If you have reached the conclusion that talk therapy does little for anxiety, insomnia, stress, 1) you're not alone, and 2) there is an alternative. For 29 years I've melded hypnosis, acupuncture, and hormone-balancing herbs to positive effect. My patients tell me they benefit from the somatic therapies I use to relax the overloaded nervous system (I know, in NYC?). Insurance covered. Time permitting, I am taking new patients and gladly offer a free consultation. Because Carpé Diem.

I am passionate about helping people improve their well-being and regain a sense of hope. Trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), I help clients improve sleep by exploring beliefs and circadian rhythm issues that hinder sleep. CBT-I is a powerful protocol that the American College of Physicians recognizes as the first-line treatment for adults with chronic insomnia. In addition to sleep therapy, I utilize biofeedback to train heart rate variability (HRV), which aids in regulating nervous system functioning, decreasing anxiety, enhancing emotional regulation, and improving stress management.

We are a group of clinical psychologists offering cognitive-behavioral approaches to help clients realize their full potential. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides practical tools to help people overcome obstacles. We work with adults, children and adolescents stuck by emotions such as anxiety, sadness, fear or anger. Many of our clients also come to us with the burden of worrisome, disturbing thoughts. Others are managing behaviors like insomnia, procrastination, anger outbursts and addictive or repetitive behaviors. Attention disorders may also impede the success of children and adults. Many just have difficulty coping with the stress of daily life and the demands of a fast paced city.

Dealing with difficult feelings alone can be overwhelming. Many find it far easier to keep those feelings buried. Some are overcome by them instead. These feelings can interfere with our dreams and relationships, impacting our ability to live our lives to the fullest. One of the greatest obstacles to coping with feelings is poor sleep which is why it is a major component of the work I do. Feel free to reach out. It would be my honor to partner with you in making your dreams a reality.

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.
