Sleep disruption is unfortunately very common. However, it is also very treatable. I utilize evidence-based treatments to address insomnia and related issues such as nightmares and sleep-related anxiety. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI), Brief Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia (BBTI), and treatments for nightmare disorder. After getting to know you and your goals, we can collaboratively choose a treatment that makes sense for you.

I have been in practice for over 15 years now and I am obsessed with sleep - how to understand sleep issues, how to improve the quality of sleep, and how to enhance the way we feel during the day.
