What's New

NEW TREATMENTS:  Chronic Insomnia

I am now providing treatment for persons with chronic insomnia, defined as difficulty falling or staying asleep for three or more nights a week over a three or more month period. 

Sleep is crucially important to our mental and physical health.  The recommended treatment for chronic anxiety is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with success rates from 80-100%. Please click on the box below for more details on the six-week program I provide.
