Sleep Issues
Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Sleep disorders reflect a brain that cannot complete the neurological transition from waking to rest — stuck in patterns of hyperarousal, fragmented rhythms, or insufficient slow-wave production that prevent truly restorative sleep.
Neurofeedback trains these transitions directly, reinforcing the brainwave patterns — particularly delta and sleep spindles — that healthy sleep requires. Clients consistently report falling asleep faster, staying asleep longer, and waking genuinely restored rather than merely rested.

Sleep is an an essential ingredient for mental and physical health. The right amount is necessary for the body and mind to relax, process and recover from the stresses of the day. Our current lifestyles make it difficult to turn off and turn in. The results contribute to regaining your health.

I use both Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) and a mind-body approach, depending on the type of sleep disorder you are experiencing.

Kristina Anzell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CPSC
You go to sleep way too late because nights are your only time that is just for you and nobody is touching you. You look at the clock and you know baby is going to wake up soon, so you get on your phone and wait. You finally get to sleep and you put the monitor on even though your baby is in the room with you. With any sound or movement you shoot up and look at the monitor. You pick the baby up when they make any tiny sound or movement. You finish a night feed and you start doing the sleep math of how much sleep you are going to get if you fall asleep right now, 30 minutes later, you start doing the math again. This is not just called being a mom, this is something that you can work on!

Chris Doorley
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
Sleep disturbances are a key driver of mental health symptoms, and are a specialization in my practice. In brief, I target sleep routines, healthy practices, and sleep hygiene. This is a three-tier approach to help people achieve a regular 7-9 hours of sleep most nights of the week and doesn't involve sleep medications or prescriptions.
