Tired all day, wired at night? Many people with insomnia feel exhausted during the day, only to find that their brain becomes alert, busy, or frustrated the moment they lie down. Over time, sleep can start to feel like something you have to chase, monitor, or “fix” — which often makes the cycle even more exhausting.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and CBTI-C Credential Holder in Behavioral Sleep Medicine, awarded by the Board of Behavioral Sleep Medicine. I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia to adults struggling with chronic insomnia, sleep-related anxiety or worry, racing thoughts at night, frequent awakenings, early morning awakenings, or difficulty trusting sleep again after a long struggle.
I have been licensed since 2005 and have advanced training in CBT-I, ...

I'm always honored when a client chooses me to help them, and I take the responsibility very seriously.

My main specialty is in the psychological management of adults with Insomnia and sleep difficulties. I've had a special interest in the field of sleep and insomnia since 2002.
I use evidence based treatments such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

After most sessions you will be given something to read, or something to write/think about, or together we might suggest trailing a new strategy or way of approaching things. Implementing new strategies can be challenging and time will be spent in sessions helping you to find ways to approach things differently.
