Everything is harder when you aren’t sleeping well, and there’s nothing worse than the helpless and frustrated feeling that accompanies a sleepless night. There’s no shortage of advice out there to improve your sleep, but many of the people I work with find that what they’re missing isn’t brand new information. Instead, they need a personalized strategy to leverage the knowledge they already have within them. That’s where cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) really shines – enabling us to put together a data-driven sleep plan that works for you and helps you reach your sleep goals. The best part is that CBT-I is brief (4-8 weeks long), effective (70% of clients achieve significant insomnia symptom improvement), and the benefits last (treatment effects outperform the use of ...

Are you tired but wired at night? Wake up at 3am and can't fall back asleep? Exhausted but your brain won't shut off?

If you've been lying awake night after night, exhausted but unable to sleep, you already know that willpower and sleep hygiene tips aren't enough. Chronic insomnia has a way of becoming self-sustaining, the more you try to fix it, the worse it gets. CBT-I breaks that cycle by targeting the thoughts and behaviors that are keeping your sleep broken, without medication and without an indefinite course of treatment. Most of my clients with insomnia are high-functioning adults who have been managing poor sleep for months or years, often alongside anxiety or depression. They've tried everything they can think of on their own. What they haven't tried is a structured, evidence-based approach designed specifically for the way insomnia actually works. CBT-I is the gold-standard, first-line tre ...

Currently accepting clients virtually across Nova Scotia and Ontario for individual CBT for Insomnia.

I'm a licensed clinical social work, with 10 years of clinical experience in community mental health. I graduated from Temple University in 2016 and began my career in social work. Throughout my work, no matter the level of care, there was a reoccurring theme of many people not getting enough sleep and or suffering from insomnia. This drove my passion to continue my education on sleep hygiene and treatments for insomnia, both personally and professionally. Not only did I find the research fascinating, I was also inspired by the level of impact CBT-I can make on individuals.
