Sleep Disorder
Dorrett Lovell
Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist, PMHNP-BC
I can treat sleep disorders, conditions that affect the quality, timing, and amount of sleep, leading to difficulties in functioning during waking hours. These disorders can involve disturbances in the sleep-wake cycle, such as insomnia, narcolepsy, sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, or parasomnias like sleepwalking or night terrors.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., DBSM
We help people with insomnia overcome the thoughts and behaviors that keep them awake at night, including anxiety or worries, which are often experienced as “my brain won’t shut off." Research has shown that chronic problems with sleep can lead to symptoms of depression and worsen anxiety as well as exacerbate medical issues. Drs. Kessler has Diplomate status in behavioral sleep medicine (DBSM), specialized training in treating insomnia with CBT-I, which is a non-medication approach that has been shown to be effective in treating insomnia in over 80% of cases.
CBT-I: Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) helps people change their thoughts and behaviors about sleep. CBT-I is a short-term, evidence-based treatment that can help people with insomnia improve their sleep quality and get more restful sleep. In many cases it can also help you get more sleep.
CBT-I typically involves multiple components. You will work with your therapist on each of these as needed, individualized to your sleep issues, with most people seeing significant improvement in 3 to 6 visits.

Good sleep is vital to our functioning. Without it, our mental and physical performance suffers. Oftentimes, once our sleep gets disrupted, it gets increasingly harder over time to fix it. I have many resources and strategies to help you improve your sleep through education, relaxation skills, and behavior modifications.

Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
In addition to cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), I also provide imagery rehearsal therapy (aka nightmare rescripting) to address problems with recurrent, distressing dreams. Because sleep issues often co-occur with other mental health problems, such as mood and anxiety concerns, I am able to integrate CBT-I with therapies targeting these concerns. When working on improving sleep with clients, I carefully track their progress week-to-week, and typically observe noticeable improvements within a relatively short timeframe.
