It is understandable to feel frustrated and stuck when it comes to sleep difficulties. I regularly work with individuals who struggle with falling and/or staying asleep, inconsistent sleep schedules, and worry about sleep. I am a clinical and performance psychologist. Therefore, many individuals I work with also have concerns about the ways in which sleep might impact their ability to function and perform at their best.
I hold a PhD in clinical psychology with training in health and performance psychology, as well as a Diplomate in Behavioral Sleep Medicine (DBSM). I have advance training in behavioral sleep medicine through the Sleep Research Society’s mentorship program under the guidance of Dr. Michael Grandner.
I offer virtual services in over 40 states including Minnesota, New ...
