Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
One of the things that can disrupt sleep is when your nervous system has difficulty moving fully out of 'fight-or-flight', or if it moves too easily INTO fight-or-flight. For example, some people have difficultly falling asleep (their mind is racing with anxiety, or their body feels pumped with energy), while some others wake in the middle of the night, suddenly fully activated.
I'll work with you to help your body learn how to move into a 'rest-and-relax' state, and we'll also work on softening the triggers that might be pushing you into fight-or-flight. If that's what's been keeping you from sleeping well, hopefully you'll start to notice small signs of progess as we work together.

TriWellness
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, LCSW, LPC, BCN, CIT, CYYT, QEEG-C, AAT-I
We support children, adolescents, and adults experiencing sleep difficulties such as insomnia, circadian rhythm disruptions, and stress-related sleep disturbances. Our approach is grounded in neuroscience and psychology, focusing on nervous system regulation and brain-based interventions. We integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma-informed and attachment-based therapy, along with neurological regulation tools such as neurofeedback and biofeedback to help retrain brain patterns associated with sleep and arousal. Complementary mind–body practices, including yoga and relaxation-based techniques, further support parasympathetic activation and healthy sleep regulation. Our goal is to help clients restore balanced sleep cycles and achieve more consistent, restorative rest.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Some of us love to sleep, others hate it, and some just do it as part of going through the motions. A sleep disorder can manifest in many different ways. I like to think of sleep as our body's recharge time. If we don't sleep or if we don't sleep well, we don't function at capacity or even sub-capacity. Our devices need to recharge or they won't work, just like us. It's okay to struggle with your sleep. I have years of working with sleep challenges and have a plethora of tools. We will tailor our work towards you.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Having a specialty focus in grad school in behavioral medicine where I also developed severe insomnia, has left me passionate and compassionate about insomnia in particular. I know way more about treating insomnia than the average therapist and use a variety of techniques in addition to worry management, stimulus control, sleep hygiene, and what I call "the win-win trick." If worries keep you awake, I truly believe that I'm your best but. If you have other forms of insomnia, you might do better with a CBT-I certified therapist.

Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Courtesy of the Mayo Clinic: “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia is a structured program that helps you identify and replace thoughts and behaviors that cause or worsen sleep problems with habits that promote sound sleep. Unlike sleeping pills, CBT-I helps you overcome the underlying causes of your sleep problems. To identify how to best treat your insomnia, your sleep therapist may have you keep a detailed sleep diary for one to two weeks. The cognitive part of CBT-I teaches you to recognize and change beliefs that affect your ability to sleep. This type of therapy can help you control or eliminate negative thoughts and worries that keep you awake. The behavioral part of CBT-I helps you develop good sleep habits and avoid behaviors that keep you from sleeping well.” Specific CBT-I techniques include the following:
Sleep Control: Removing factors that condition the mind to resist sleep.
Sleep Restriction: Reducing the time spent in bed to increase the mind-body willingness to sleep the following night. Once sleep has improved, the time in bed is gradually increased.
Sleep Hygiene: Changing basic lifestyle habits that influence sleep, such as smoking or drinking too much caffeine late in the day, drinking too much alcohol, or not getting regular exercise.
Relaxation Training: Calming the mind and body using meditation, imagery, and muscle relaxation.
