BSM Specialties: OSA / CPAP adherence training
Spencer Dawson Featured
I am a licensed clinical psychologist and am board certified in Behavioral Sleep Medicine. One of the things I like most about my work is being able to help people improve their lives through better sleep. It’s amazing to witness someone go from feeling controlled by their sleep problems to being confident in their ability to improve their sleep and cope with the bad nights that become fewer and fewer.
I am on the faculty of Indiana University. Specifically, I am Assistant Clinical Professor and Associate Director of Clinical Training in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences. In that position, I am responsible for training and supervising doctoral students in the clinical science program.

I have been in practice for over 15 years and have extensive experience in treating insomnia and other sleep disorders. I underwent intensive training and consultation in CBT-I at a medical center and have been certified in this treatment since 2021. I provide CBT-I in my practice on a regular basis, and find this to be one of the most fulfilling and rewarding treatments to offer.

Cathy Bykowski, Ph.D. Featured
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.

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 trauma-informed behavioral sleep medicine 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, co-morbid insomnia & sleep apnea (COMISA), and sleep-wake phase misalignment, I also get referrals from physicians to assist their patients in eliminating sleep medications and getting 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.
