CBT-I International Directory: All Clinician Listings 

Board Certified Women's Health Nurse Practitioner, Certified CBT-I Clinician with advanced training at Stanford’s Sleep Health and Insomnia Program. My training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Nonviolent Communication shapes how I listen and understand the nervous system. Sleep is shaped by your body, your history and your life. That whole picture is the context I work from. My clients are women whose sleep has become effortful. Insomnia often arrives with a hormonal transition; pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause — and gets written off as normal for that stage. It can also follow a loss, a diagnosis, sustained stress, or have no clear cause. However you arrived here, suffering is never normal. Many women I work with have already tried sleep hygiene, sleep medications, and tr ...

We all know that getting good sleep is important. It is foundational to our well being. When we’re not getting the rest we need, it can feel like we’re running on empty - physically, mentally, and emotionally. Sleep deprivation doesn’t just affect our energy levels; it impacts our mood, memory, and even our ability to handle stress. As a therapist, I  bring over 20 years of experience to help people with various life issues. I specialize in helping individuals get their sleep back on track, let go of constant worry, and feel more at peace using the proven techniques of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). This approach is short-term, usually lasting about 6-8 sessions." For many years, I struggled with insomnia. I finally found the help I needed in CBT-I which ...

When demanding careers and constant hyperarousal make winding down feel out of reach, standard sleep hygiene advice rarely works.

If you've been lying awake night after night, exhausted but unable to sleep, you already know that willpower and sleep hygiene tips aren't enough. Chronic insomnia has a way of becoming self-sustaining, the more you try to fix it, the worse it gets. CBT-I breaks that cycle by targeting the thoughts and behaviors that are keeping your sleep broken, without medication and without an indefinite course of treatment. Most of my clients with insomnia are high-functioning adults who have been managing poor sleep for months or years, often alongside anxiety or depression. They've tried everything they can think of on their own. What they haven't tried is a structured, evidence-based approach designed specifically for the way insomnia actually works. CBT-I is the gold-standard, first-line tre ...

I take a scientific and person-centered approach that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), neurocounseling, and other evidence-based practices (EBPs) to help you achieve restorative, lasting sleep. CBT-I is recognized by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine as the gold standard for chronic insomnia, including when insomnia occurs alongside other conditions. The American College of Physicians also recommends CBT-I as the first-line treatment for insomnia before medication. Research shows that most people experience noticeable improvement in four to eight weeks, and the benefits are long-term — unlike sleep medications, which are intended for short-term relief and show limited lasting effect. My work is grounded in the science of neurobiology, mental health, ...
