BSM Specialties: Insomnia
Do you find yourself lying awake at night, despite trying to do everything right to sleep well? Are you worried about the impact of sleeplessness on your health, relationships and career? Are you wanting to get off sleeping medication (or avoid starting it in the first place), but worried you can't sleep without it?
Whether you’ve been struggling to sleep for years or you’re experiencing insomnia for the first time - you are in the right place.
I love to help clients discover consistent, quality rest using CBT-I. Together we will use a set of structured techniques and strategies to break the pattern of insomnia and establish a new healthy pattern of sleep that allows your body to repair its natural sleep mechanism in 6-8 weeks. (1)
Compassion is central to my work.

We all know that getting good sleep is important. It is foundational to our well being. When we’re not getting the rest we need, it can feel like we’re running on empty - physically, mentally, and emotionally. Sleep deprivation doesn’t just affect our energy levels; it impacts our mood, memory, and even our ability to handle stress.
As a therapist, I bring over 20 years of experience to help people with various life issues. I specialize in helping individuals get their sleep back on track, let go of constant worry, and feel more at peace using the proven techniques of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). This approach is short-term, usually lasting about 6-8 sessions."
For many years, I struggled with insomnia. I finally found the help I needed in CBT-I which ...
