Dr. Sisco is an internationally recognized trauma recovery specialist. She emphasizes the importance of a developed and appreciated sense of self in the recovery process. This requires clients to share a little deeper and to own the parts of self that have previously been shunned. The concept is alignment. The more truly aligned our internal voice is with our values as well as our representative to the world, the more successful we are in negotiating life with fulfillment and ease. In the process of overcoming the nagging voice inside or the intrusive thoughts of conversation reruns or traumas replaying in the shadows of the minds eye, Dr. Sisco focuses on symptom relief via CBT including applications of the structured CBT-I 6-8 session model to manage insomnia.

After working in a variety of settings, including in outpatient community mental health, a men's prison, a youth shelter, an inpatient psychiatric hospital, and a medical/surgical hospital, I found my way to private practice.

I am a certified CBT-I clinician via Dr. Gregg Jacob's training program, and I have conducted individual CBT-I sessions - in office and remotely since 2015.
