I take a scientific and person-centered approach that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), neurocounseling, and other evidence-based practices (EBPs) to help you achieve restorative, lasting sleep. CBT-I is recognized by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine as the gold standard for chronic insomnia, including when insomnia occurs alongside other conditions. The American College of Physicians also recommends CBT-I as the first-line treatment for insomnia before medication. Research shows that most people experience noticeable improvement in four to eight weeks, and the benefits are long-term — unlike sleep medications, which are intended for short-term relief and show limited lasting effect. My work is grounded in the science of neurobiology, mental health, ...

Wouldn’t it be nice to not have to worry about sleep? To know that you can fall asleep within a reasonable amount of time.

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 ...

Are you worried about the impact of sleeplessness on your health, relationships and career? Are you wanting to get off sleeping medication (or avoid starting it in the first place), but worried you can't sleep without it? I help adults who are on their umpteenth night of crappy sleep, heal their natural sleep mechanism and finally get consistent sleep again, usually in just 6-8 weeks. [ Ready to get started right away? Book your first session or ask a question here: https://www.bodymindalliancecc.com/get-in-touch ] Clients often come to me desperate, anxious and tired. They’ve tried lots of other things already so they’re looking for an expert, not a generalist who just knows a little about sleep. They want someone who can take their unique health and sleep challenges into acc ...
