BSM Specialties: Insomnia
Elise Robinson Featured
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 ...

If you've been lying awake night after night, exhausted but unable to sleep, you already know that willpower and sleep hygiene tips aren't enough. Chronic insomnia has a way of becoming self-sustaining, the more you try to fix it, the worse it gets. CBT-I breaks that cycle by targeting the thoughts and behaviors that are keeping your sleep broken, without medication and without an indefinite course of treatment.
Most of my clients with insomnia are high-functioning adults who have been managing poor sleep for months or years, often alongside anxiety or depression. They've tried everything they can think of on their own. What they haven't tried is a structured, evidence-based approach designed specifically for the way insomnia actually works.
CBT-I is the gold-standard, first-line tre ...

Andrea L. Jamison Featured
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in helping people sleep better. I tailor CBTI-I to your needs by taking into account what works for your specific nervous system. This can include addressing a mind that won't turn off, a body that feels panicky or on high alert, or feeling awake for no known reason at all. I also offer general therapy incorporating CBT, somatic, and psychodynamic approaches for anyone who overthinks, overanalyzes, and has trouble "shutting off their brain" - whether it's day or night. You can choose to do CBT-I only, general psychotherapy only, or some combination of the two. Reach out for a free consultation and we can discuss what might work best for you. I'm currently accepting new telehealth clients throughout the state of Virginia. Please note tha ...

Now accepting new clients for treatment starting in August 2024.
In a real dark night of the soul it is always three o’ clock in the morning - F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Insomnia is a 24 hour condition which erodes one’s ability to lead a fulfilling life. Most people live with insomnia for an average of ten years before seeking help. I recognize how bad things must be for you to be here. Despite the complexity of the initial cause of insomnia and its impact on your life, I offer a brief but highly effective treatment integrating CBT-I and EMDR (eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing).
While CBT-I elements target the unhelpful behaviours and beliefs which perpetuate your difficulties with sleep, EMDR treats the accumulated memories of insomnia and associated with it to treat th ...
