I focus my work at the intersection of sleep and mental health. If sleep isn’t restful, usually our mood, thinking, and day-to-day activities are affected. And vice versa–if we’re stressed or not feeling good, we may not be sleeping well. I can help you make changes to your sleep that will improve your mental health, and I can support you in managing your mental health so you can sleep better. No meds required--I only use cognitive and behavioral strategies that work.

Human beings need sleep. And whether you have insomnia for an unclear reason - or can point to varieties of anxiety, depression or fear - CBT-I is an excellent tool to help you get back on the path of a solid night sleep.
I provide telehealth therapy for insomnia (for those located in Oregon and Washington state) - and provide therapy for those who have reoccurring nightmares - and used to have a group for people with re-occuring nightmares. My education is CBT-I - and also includes Image Rehearsal Therapy IRT) for nightmares AND Exposure, Relaxation, and Re-scripting Therapy (ERRT) which is a cognitive behavioral treatment for trauma-related nightmares.
