Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I provide CBT-I, or cognitive-behavioral therapy designed for insomnia, to help you clear your mind and get the sleep you need. This approach is powerful, proven, and does not take long for meaningful results. We can also mix in other techniques, depending on the likely cause of your insomnia. Insomnia can affect so many areas of your life, and therapy can help you address It quickly.

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.

Psychologist, PhD, LP, CCHT, CMHIMP
Sleep problems that lead to deprivation have been associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, pain, neurological, breathing, urological, and gastrointestinal problems. Cognitive-behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is proven more effective than medications in both the short and long term for sleep problems. It has been recommended by many medical associations as the first line treatment. It has even been shown to increase cognitive functioning in older adults and increase CPAP use. Using CBT-I, mindfulness, and/or hypnosis, I can help you start getting a good nights sleep. If nightmares are your problem, I can help you reduce them once and for all using the proven effective Imaginal Rehearsal Therapy. Additionally, I can help you explore and learn about nutritional and other complementary approaches to help balance and soothe your system.

Jackie Ma
Psychologist, Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology
I am competent in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which is a gold standard treatment for this condition. As a result of my training experiences, I have also worked with individuals with sleep apnea who are struggling to use their CPAP/BiPAP machines consistently due to anxiety or fear. I utilize a treatment called CPAP desensitization to address such concerns. I have also worked with individuals with circadian rhythm disorders and hypersomnia.
