Sleep Disorder
David Redbord
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MPH, LPCC
Sleep plays a huge role in your life: it’s a major factor in your health, weight, emotional well-being.
When we don’t sleep we get more irritable, more easily stressed, and can’t think as clearly.
In short, we just don’t function nearly as well as we’d like.
The key is to sleeping better is to find what’s causing us not to sleep.
Often it’s because our nervous system is overactive and not settled after we’ve finished our day.
There are a variety of tools I use to work with clients to help them feel more relaxed and to calm their nervous systems in preparation for sleep.
Some of these techniques and tools include: supplements, binaural beats, yoga nidra, yin and/or restorative yoga before bed, and EFT Tapping.
I’d welcome the opportunity to help you get better sleep so you can relax, feel better, function better, and show up more fully for yourself and your loved ones.fee

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
Insomnia is a great stressor for many people. We can go to extreme lengths to get a "good night's sleep". Did you know was was far simpler than all the gadgets, medicines, and rituals? I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to help people improve the quality and quantity of their sleep. Finally getting a good night's rest can be a great starting point to treating anxiety and depression. If you are not sleeping great, then these other problems can be more resistant to treatment.
