About My Clients
If you've been living with insomnia for months or years, you may find yourself wondering if you have the worst case of insomnia ever. You may also feel like you have do everything possible to protect your sleep, as if it's a fragile bubble that can be popped at any moment. It's so frustrating when you arrange your life around sleep, only to find that you still struggle more than anyone else that you know.
My Background and Approach
I've seen how wellness culture has started to encroach on the world of sleep, making it another aspect of life to track and optimize. This winds up making people with insomnia feel even more trapped and lonely. Sleep responds very poorly to effort, given that it is a state of unconsciousness and physical relaxation. Sleep should be a magical break from the cares of the day, not another thing to work at. This is easier said than done. Most people with insomnia know that their efforts to solve the problem of sleeplessness often leave them more wakeful and anxious, but they don't know what else to do. This is where therapy comes in. I can guide you to other ways of understanding and approaching sleep and insomnia, so that you can feel comfortable trusting your natural ability to sleep. It's easy to get discouraged when you have insomnia. It's crucial to have someone on your side who can help you see the light at the end of the tunnel.
