Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in Morristown, NJ

You’re lying in bed and it starts - endless thoughts of what there is to do and what hasn’t been done, what is going wrong or what could go wrong, memories, exciting new ideas, old conversations, thoughts of how to ‘fix’ your sleep/anxiety/mood/organization/relationships/life. Your busy mind can be exhausting yet that is exactly the problem; you just can’t seem to disengage enough to fully relax, enjoy, or possibly even sleep. And all of that thinking does not seem to improve the way you live day-to-day anyway. This is a frustrating paradox when you are trying to reach your fullest potential but it feels just out of reach.

Are you or a loved one struggling with alcohol, opiates, benzos or other drugs? What about depression and anxiety, insomnia and loss of self-esteem?

Together, we will create a plan to address your situation, helping you or a loved one understand the disease of addiction or mental health disorder, develop coping skills, deal with anxiety, anger, and other emotions, build a support network, improve sleep, and assess the need for medications, if warranted. My goal is to help you find a path to a rewarding, fullfilling life.
