I’m a psychotherapist in private practice licensed in NY and NJ. I offer over a decade of experience, specializing in treating anxiety and insomnia. My own struggle with insomnia led me to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), and I was my own first CBT-I patient. It worked so well that I became a CBT-I practitioner. My patients also appreciate how well CBT-I works, and how quickly. In nearly all the patients I’ve treated for insomnia, there is a strong tendency for perfectionism. I found that enhancing core CBT-I with additional modules on mindfulness, relaxation and emotional regulation skills effectively addresses this issue. Sleep is so fundamental to our well-being, and it can get off-balance easily. One of my greatest professional joys is when my patients report t ...

Sleep disruption is unfortunately very common. However, it is also very treatable. I utilize evidence-based treatments to address insomnia and related issues such as nightmares and sleep-related anxiety. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI), Brief Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia (BBTI), and treatments for nightmare disorder. After getting to know you and your goals, we can collaboratively choose a treatment that makes sense for you. Some of the most dramatic improvements I've seen have been in Veterans who resolved 40+ years of insomnia after just a handful of treatment sessions. And unsurprisingly, many other areas of life improve quickly once sleep improves. I have been providing CBTI for over 10 years, having completed my training and certification wi ...
