Are you having trouble sleeping?

You're not alone! According to a recent study by Consumer Reports, 50 per cent of Americans who were asked about their most recent night of sleep report problems including: trouble falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, and awakening too early. In fact, more than a hundred million Americans of all ages regularly fail to get a good night's sleep.

Many factors can cause you to lose sleep: high stress levels, physical pain, and problematic habits can all contribute to difficulty with sleep. Sleep deprivation can in turn lead to irritability, mood swings, depression, memory loss, chronic illness and many other problems.

Using a multi-step process, I can work with you to evaluate the underlying causes of your sleep problems. We will then develop a program tailored to your individual needs. I believe that medication should be a last resort and I will work to help you find natural, noninvasive ways to address your problem. I use a combination of approaches and techniques including: Neurofeedback, Biofeedback, relaxation training, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and sleep hygiene education. In some cases I may determine that a referral to a sleep clinic is indicated.

Many of my patients have seen significant improvement in their sleep patterns after using my approach. If you're interested in meeting with me for a free consultation feel free to contact me.
