Great to meet you!

I specialize in using psychological principles to improve sleep, mood and anxiety problems. I was previously the director of the adult Behavioral Sleep Medicine clinic at Rhode Island Hospital. I can almost always help people improve their sleep even if they have significant medical complications or mental health issues. I like to keep treatment brief--around 6 to 8 sessions as a general guideline. I am an expert in these kinds of treatments and often find that people can improve very quickly.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I provide skills that are based on solid psychological principles and have been tested in high-quality research studies. They tend to be focused on the present and you should notice feeling better fairly quickly. I can explain what I'm doing, what I'm thinking and why I believe it will work. The things we do will make sense and you'll be able to explain them to others.

What you can expect from our first session

I give lots of information and provide materials in a variety of formats. I believe after our first assessment you'll feel a bit more hopeful about your ability to sleep better and get all the benefits that come with better sleep.
