As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, I help my clients explore beliefs that are getting in the way of sleep and guide them in powerful CBT-I techniques that transform wakefulness into slumber. My group practice, Zest Mental Health Counseling, has prioritized sleep, and includes a second CBT-I provider as well! The CBT-I protocol typically takes 6-10 sessions to complete, and our work is done on a HIPAA-compliant video platform. While we don't take health insurance, it’s possible your insurance company will reimburse you for services received outside of the company’s network, and we will provide you with a claim that you can submit. We would love to hear from you!

I’m a psychotherapist in private practice licensed in NY and NJ. I offer over a decade of experience, specializing in treating anxiety and insomnia. My own struggle with insomnia led me to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), and I was my own first CBT-I patient. It worked so well that I became a CBT-I practitioner. My patients also appreciate how well CBT-I works, and how quickly.
In nearly all the patients I’ve treated for insomnia, there is a strong tendency for perfectionism. I found that enhancing core CBT-I with additional modules on mindfulness, relaxation and emotional regulation skills effectively addresses this issue.
Sleep is so fundamental to our well-being, and it can get off-balance easily. One of my greatest professional joys is when my patients report t ...
