Dyani Saxby
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP, DBSM
As a board certified sleep psychologist (diplomate of behavioral sleep medicine) I am able to treat complex sleep problems. I offer cognitive behavioral therapy and ACT approaches for insomnia. In addition, I offer imagery rehearsal therapy for nightmares, assistance with CPAP adjustment for sleep apnea, hypnosis for parasomnias (e.g., sleep walking, eating, sleep paralysis). Finally, I offer behavioral strategies for clients who have disorders of hypersomnolence (hypersomnia and narcolepsy). I have had positive results incorporating hypnosis for insomnia as well as hypnosis for improving energy and reducing fatigue associated with narcolepsy and hypersomnia.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., LP. 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.

Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Sleep problems often become a frustrating cycle in which the harder we try to force sleep, the more elusive it becomes. As a psychologist certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), I use research-supported strategies to help clients break that cycle and restore healthier sleep. We'll also explore the thoughts, emotions, and habits that may be contributing to ongoing sleep difficulties so you can develop a more flexible and trusting relationship with sleep.

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.
