Are you tired of staring at the clock throughout the night, wishing you could sleep? Do you spend the whole day wishing for bedtime, only to feel wide awake when you finally get in bed? Do you dread sleep because of your nightmares? Or maybe you're sleeping too much because you just don't have the energy to get out of bed. Maybe your brain focuses on every terrible thing that could possibly happen. You may have gotten "helpful" advice to "snap out of it." A popular local plumber states "We repair what your husband fixed." You would call an expert to fix your pipes, and your mental health deserves the same investment!

I've been in practice for 15 years and have extensive experience in assessment and treatment of sleep disorders. Through the Department of Veterans Affairs, I completed certifications in evidence-based therapies for insomnia, nightmares, CPAP adherence, as well as PTSD and depression. I offer both group classes and individual sessions via telehealth.

I know that contacting a psychologist is probably not your first step in this process. You may feel like you've tried everything! I've spent years training to help you, and I'm excited to start this journey of healing with you!
