Has sleep been stressful instead of restful? Do you find yourself dreading bedtime or lying awake for hours just waiting and waiting for sleep to come? To top it all off, you're so tired during the days fighting the desire to nap and yet still can't seem to sleep well at night.
No matter if these struggles are new or something you've experienced for some time, I've got your back. Using CBT-I, I love helping people achieve consistent, quality rest regardless of what is going on in life. Through this modality, we will work together to unlearn your current sleep habits and hone new skills and strategies to have a truly positive relationship with sleep. In doing this, many people notice benefits in their stress levels, relationships, work life, and so much more.
If you're looking for hea ...
