I specialize in the treatment of insomnia, nightmares, circadian rhythm disorders, PAP adherence, and other sleep disorders that would benefit from a behavioral approach. Sleep difficulties are often overlooked and yet they undermine our mood, productivity, creativity, memory, and overall health. Whether you recently started having difficulty with sleep or it's been a long standing problem, there are highly effective treatments that do NOT involve the use of medications. In fact, if you are currently taking medications for sleep but would like to reduce or eliminate them, I can help. If anxious thoughts are interfering with your sleep, we can find ways to reduce the impact that anxiety has on your sleep.
With over a decade of experience, I help individuals reach their goals by adapting ...

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.

Tired all day, wired at night? Many people with insomnia feel exhausted during the day, only to find that their brain becomes alert, busy, or frustrated the moment they lie down.

Poor sleep negatively impacts so many aspects of our lives - relationships, work, our mood, energy, concentration and health - but it doesn't have to any longer! Unfortunately, so many of the strategies out there that promote better sleep (e.g., sleep hygiene, supplements, sound machines) are not supported by strong science. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is different. CBT-I is a short-term, very effective treatment, backed by decades of solid research studies. The majority of people who try CBT-I report significant improvement. Whether you're experiencing insomnia or chronic nightmares*, let's work together to help you feel rested again. I've been a Psychologist for 21 years, am licensed to practice (only) in Indiana, and am in-network with Anthem BCBS.
