Brandon Peters-Mathews, M.D., FAASM, is a board-certified neurologist and sleep physician who practices at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health in Seattle. He was a sleep fellow at Stanford University where he was trained in cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI). He is a fellow of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. He is the author of Sleep Through Insomnia and created a self-guided online CBTI program called Insomnia Solved. He is a leading voice in sleep medicine, having written more than 1000 articles over the past decade that are read by millions of people each year. He lectures extensively, works at the cutting edge of telemedicine and insomnia therapy, and provides comprehensive resources and consulting services to advance the field.
I've been practicing CBT since the 1970s and pivoted my practice to include CBTI following my initial training in 2016. Much of my work now emphasizes sleep psychology and I regularly attend seminars and workshops in addition to participating in sleep medicine training with the World Sleep Academy. Though I primarily work with insomnia, I also get referrals from physicians to assist their patients in eliminating sleep medications and to get desensitized to CPAP masks. I am licensed as a psychologist in both Florida and Missouri and work exclusively through telehealth using a HIPPA-compliant platform.
