Therapy for
Adults with Insomnia
Exhausted by Perfectionism,
Burnout, and Never Being
Able to Shut It Off
You work hard. You care deeply. You hold yourself to high standards.
But at night you can’t “shut it off”, you find yourself tossing and turning, or waking up at 3am unable to get back to sleep.
I help tired adults quiet their minds, sleep better, and build a healthier relationship with themselves—so life doesn’t feel like a constant mental marathon.
You are stuck feeling “tired but wired”
It is late and your mind is still replaying yesterday’s staff meeting, yesterday’s argument, and everything you wish you had said differently
You have tried all the tips on sleep hygiene, but it doesn’t work
You got three hours of sleep, your eyes burn, the caffeine is barely touching it, and somehow you still expect yourself to perform
Your bed is no longer a restful place, it’s now an added stressor
Sleep medications might work, but you don’t want to rely on them
Imagine Your Life Well Rested
Waking up without already feeling behind
Falling asleep in 30 minutes or less
Sleeping more deeply, which leaves you feeling better rested
Getting up and out of bed in the morning, able to jump into your day
Improved memory and improved focus, which often happens when the brain is properly rested
No longer being haunted by thoughts like: “If I can’t sleep tonight, tomorrow will be so much worse.”
You don’t have to feel this way.
I provide CBT-I, which is the gold standard of insomnia treatment.
How does this relief happen?
The fantastic thing about insomnia is that CBT-I is very effective. The first step will be to assess for insomnia, screen for sleep apnea, and start sleep tracking.
I’m going to be honest, the first 2 weeks are going to be hard because treatment does typically start with limiting time in bed. This initially does lead to feeling MORE tired, but this is what we want. The purpose is to increase the sleep drive so you can actually fall asleep within 10 minutes.
This method is designed to only take 4 sessions, attended bi-weekly, over 8 weeks. Typically sleep is already improving by the 2nd session. These are measurable, clear results.
Our work is structured, practical, and tailored to you.
