Waitlist for new clients
There are many symptoms that can indicate that a nervous system is having a stress reaction, such as stress/anxiety, insomnia, sleep regulation, depression, headaches/migraines, brain injuries, memory and focus, and mood disorders.
As a Counselor, I will work hard to help clients gain insight into both past and present experiences in order to empower themselves to make informed choices that lead to meaningful change. Talk therapy can be either in-person or online. I will accommodate what is most comfortable for my clients. I also offer Neurofeedback in my practice. Neurofeedback is a brain training technique that has been shown to be safe and effective for over 30 years. It is a form of biofeedback that offers the brain information about its own electrical activity, which has a profound impact on an individual's stress response.

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.
