Sleep Disorder
Success Behavioral Health, Teresa J Lynch
Psychologist, PhD, LP, CCHT, CMHIMP
Sleep problems that lead to deprivation have been associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, pain, neurological, breathing, urological, and gastrointestinal problems. Cognitive-behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is proven more effective than medications in both the short and long term for sleep problems. It has been recommended by many medical associations as the first line treatment. It has even been shown to increase cognitive functioning in older adults and increase CPAP use. Using CBT-I, mindfulness, and/or hypnosis, I can help you start getting a good nights sleep. If nightmares are your problem, I can help you reduce them once and for all using the proven effective Imaginal Rehearsal Therapy. Additionally, I can help you explore and learn about nutritional and other complementary approaches to help balance and soothe your system.

Jackie Ma
Psychologist, Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology
I am competent in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which is a gold standard treatment for this condition. As a result of my training experiences, I have also worked with individuals with sleep apnea who are struggling to use their CPAP/BiPAP machines consistently due to anxiety or fear. I utilize a treatment called CPAP desensitization to address such concerns. I have also worked with individuals with circadian rhythm disorders and hypersomnia.

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.
