Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for sleep disorders and sleep-related difficulties, including insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, restless sleep, nightmares, and disrupted sleep patterns. Sleep challenges can significantly impact mood, energy levels, concentration, emotional regulation, physical health, and overall quality of life.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to sleep issues, recognizing that sleep disturbances are often connected to stress, anxiety, unresolved trauma, emotional dysregulation, or nervous system activation. Therapy focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying factors that may be interfering with healthy sleep, rather than only treating symptoms at the surface level.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support nervous system calming, emotional processing, and long-term sleep improvement. Treatment may include exploring past experiences that contribute to hyperarousal, anxiety, or difficulty feeling safe and settled at night.
In addition to trauma-focused work, therapy may also incorporate practical sleep hygiene strategies, relaxation techniques, stress reduction skills, and behavioral approaches that support healthier sleep patterns and improved rest over time.
Brad’s approach is collaborative and individualized, helping clients develop a personalized plan that addresses both emotional and behavioral contributors to sleep difficulties. The goal is to restore healthy sleep cycles, improve daily functioning, and support greater emotional balance and overall well-being.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can improve sleep quality, reduce nighttime anxiety, and regain the restorative rest needed for physical, emotional, and mental health.

Kevin J. Drab
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified EMDR Therapist, Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counsel
Once we have identified the factors contributing to your sleep difficulties, I will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that is focused on addressing the root causes of your sleep problems. This may include a combination of relaxation techniques, mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and other evidence-based therapies designed to promote healthy sleep habits and improve sleep quality.
Through our therapy sessions, I will also provide you with practical tools and techniques to help you manage stress and anxiety, improve your sleep hygiene, and develop healthy habits that promote restful and restorative sleep. This may include tips on creating a sleep-conducive environment, developing a regular sleep routine, and identifying and addressing any negative thoughts or beliefs that may be contributing to your sleep difficulties.

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.

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.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
One of the things that can disrupt sleep is when your nervous system has difficulty moving fully out of 'fight-or-flight', or if it moves too easily INTO fight-or-flight. For example, some people have difficultly falling asleep (their mind is racing with anxiety, or their body feels pumped with energy), while some others wake in the middle of the night, suddenly fully activated.
I'll work with you to help your body learn how to move into a 'rest-and-relax' state, and we'll also work on softening the triggers that might be pushing you into fight-or-flight. If that's what's been keeping you from sleeping well, hopefully you'll start to notice small signs of progess as we work together.
