Great to meet you!

Sleep is not a luxury. It is the foundation of mental health.

I specialize in behavioral sleep medicine for adults (aged 18-60) who are struggling with insomnia, nightmares, stress-related sleep disruption, and trauma-related sleep disturbance.

My approach to therapy

My work focuses on evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), Dream Rescripting Therapy (DRT), and trauma-informed sleep treatment. Rather than simply sedating the brain, we'll retrain it. We'll work with the nervous system — not against it.

What you can expect from me

As a Doctor of Nursing Practice and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I integrate neuroscience, polyvagal theory, and practical behavioral tools to help regulate the stress response that keeps sleep fragmented.

When appropriate, we also review medications that may be contributing to disrupted sleep or vivid dreams.

Sleep difficulties are often misunderstood. They are not a personal failure. They are frequently a nervous system pattern that can be rewired.

If you are ready to restore deep, restorative sleep, I would be honored to help.
