Look, lots of things influence your weight, sleep, and pain experience.
It's just plain wrong that so many people struggle to be accepting, empathic, and warm toward you. It's their job to do this stuff, right? You may ask why does my therapist struggle to relate to me? Why does my therapist not appreciate the depth of my suffering? Why do I wonder if they truly understand me on a deep level? Your trust is earned not given. You make your own choices about what you do and how you live your life. No one knows more about your life than you do. You don't have to do this alone. I'm here to work with you. I'm here to be a guide with you on the journey and to help you find genuine happiness.

I have worked in the mental health field for over a decade assisting individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, insomnia, psychosis, existential dread, relationship conflicts, and bereavement.
Would you benefit from having a safe, non-judgmental space to express and process your thoughts and emotions? Many times, our past experiences impact our ability to connect to others and appreciate the current moment. It can be helpful to read the previous chapters of our lives to gain an understanding of the present and provide direction for future chapters we aspire to write.

I specialize in treating everyday health issues such as sleep disturbances, unhealthy lifestyle habits and work/life/ relationship stress as well as the emotional and behavioral components of coping with debilitating accidents, work injuries and serious medical conditions such as chronic pain, cancer, immunological disorders, diabetes and heart disease.
Therapy is sometimes viewed as an intimidating endeavor. The ability to take that first step often provides an immediate sense of relief. What happens after that depends on the therapeutic alliance as well as the goals of treatment. If you are suffering from a mood or personality disorder, substance dependence/addiction or the challenges associated with aging, you may be feeling overwhelmed by the uncertainty of the world around you. Likewise, if you are coping with a dysfunctional relationship or job/personal life dissatisfaction, now may be the time to take a closer look at effecting positive change in your life.

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.
