Sleep Issues
Dr. Daisy Vélez
Psychologist, PsyD, DipACLM, PMH-C
When sleep becomes a nightly struggle, it can affect every aspect of your life—your mood, memory, relationships, and overall health. I help adults and teens break the cycle of sleeplessness using evidence-based treatments like CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia) and mind-body strategies that target the root causes of disrupted sleep. Whether you're dealing with insomnia, restless sleep, or anxiety that keeps you up at night, we’ll work together to restore healthy sleep and help you feel like yourself again.

Sleep Issues
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Are you struggling to sleep, and finding yourself thinking about your sleep or worrying about your sleep? Or are you worrying about your infant's sleep? Many people feel exhausted, frustrated, and anxious about sleep, and this makes falling and staying asleep even even more difficult. I use CBTi, the gold-standard treatment for insomnia to help you let go of the worry and sleep restfully. Therapy focuses on calming your nervous system, shifting the triggers around bedtime, helping you understand how sleep works, and building healthier sleep routines. With compassionate care based on the most up to date research, you can achieve restorative rest and restful sleep, giving you the energy you need to feel well in your daily life.

Sleep Issues
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.

Birmingham carries one of the most significant civil rights legacies of any American city — the site of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing and pivotal moments in the fight for racial justice — and this history creates a distinctive context in which racial identity, historical trauma, and community resilience are active themes in local therapy culture. The city is home to UAB (University of Alabama at Birmingham), one of the country's premier academic medical centers, which anchors significant mental health research, training, and clinical infrastructure. Birmingham's African American community — which comprises a majority of the city's population — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. The broader Birmingham metro's mix of healthcare, finance, and manufacturing industries creates diverse occupational therapy demand across a metropolitan area larger than the city itself.
