Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
One of our clinicians at Alignment Psychotherapy PLLC specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), an evidence-based, first-line treatment for chronic sleep difficulties. This approach focuses on identifying and changing the thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that interfere with healthy sleep, rather than relying solely on medication. Our clinician works collaboratively with clients to address issues such as difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing non-restorative sleep. Treatment may include strategies like sleep scheduling, stimulus control, cognitive restructuring around sleep-related anxiety, and building sustainable sleep habits that align with the body’s natural rhythms. With a structured yet personalized approach, CBT-I can lead to lasting improvements in sleep quality and overall well-being. Our goal is to help clients regain confidence in their ability to sleep and develop practical tools that support long-term, restorative rest.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
When sleep becomes unreliable, insomnia can quickly affect mood, concentration, and overall functioning. Many adults find themselves caught in a cycle where stress, racing thoughts, or irregular sleep patterns make it increasingly difficult to rest. I help clients identify the factors contributing to insomnia and develop practical strategies that support healthier, more consistent sleep.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
Starting many years ago, clients frequently enough reported sleep improvement associated with hypnotherapy, that I routinely began teaching each client sleep preparation techniques through the use of post hypnotic suggestions, relaxation exercises, and guided imagery. The reported benefits associated with doing so have been noteworthy. In this regard, Using Fitbit, Google, and Apple watches, has enabled both me and my clients to document improved sleep. An associated benefit has been a reported increase in dreaming which allows one to vent stressors among other benefits. I only work with diagnosed sleep disorders by way of medical referral.

Dr. Kelly Scherger
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Sleep plays an essential role in emotional regulation, physical health, cognitive functioning, and overall quality of life. When sleep difficulties such as insomnia become part of your routine, your mood, energy, relationships, and ability to manage everyday stress become difficult to manage. I work with clients to explore the psychological and behavioral factors that may contribute to sleep issues and identify individualized strategies to support more restful sleep. Specifically, I provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which is the gold standard treatment for insomnia.
