BSM Specialties: Insomnia
Martin Kounitz, LICSW/LCSW Featured
Helping you sleep better is my passion. I've practiced evidenced-based treatment for sleep disorders for over 10 years. As an adjunct professor at Smith College for Social Work, I taught CBT for insomnia (CBT-I) to psychologists and CBT itself to social work students. Through CBT-I, I'll help you to build tools to overcome sleep problems and the related challenges you may face. Many people are burdened with anxiety about sleeping and feel anxious that poor sleep affects their work or relationships. Let's work together to reduce your worry. We'll understand your sleep patterns and collaboratively develop goals.
Licensed in both New York and Massachusetts, I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medicare, Tufts, Harvard Pilgrim, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and Wellpoint/Unicare.

Andrea L. Jamison Featured
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in helping people sleep better. I tailor CBTI-I to your needs by taking into account what works for your specific nervous system. This can include addressing a mind that won't turn off, a body that feels panicky or on high alert, or feeling awake for no known reason at all. I also offer general therapy incorporating CBT, somatic, and psychodynamic approaches for anyone who overthinks, overanalyzes, and has trouble "shutting off their brain" - whether it's day or night. You can choose to do CBT-I only, general psychotherapy only, or some combination of the two. Reach out for a free consultation and we can discuss what might work best for you. I'm currently accepting new telehealth clients throughout the state of Virginia. Please note tha ...

Cathy Bykowski, Ph.D. Featured
You’re exhausted but can’t turn your brain off at night. Maybe you lie awake replaying to-do lists, worrying about what’s ahead, or counting the hours you have left to sleep. Some nights you fall asleep quickly, other nights you’re still wide awake at 2 a.m. You’re tired of tossing, turning, and dragging through your days.
I’m a health psychologist who helps people break the cycle between stress, poor sleep, and health problems. Stress, burnout, and emotional strain can lead to sleep difficulties, weight gain, high blood pressure, and trouble managing conditions like diabetes or chronic illness. At the same time, health issues can affect your mood, motivation, and daily habits — leaving you stuck in a frustrating loop.

If insomnia is ruining not only your nights, but also your days, I can help.
I am trained to support you using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). If you are looking on this directory, you may well already know that in the UK, the National Institute For Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommends that CBTi be offered as the first-line treatment for adults of any age. It is recommended over and above sleep medication.
