About
I specialize in sleep medicine with a focus on using evidence-based diagnostic approaches and personalized treatment plans to help patients achieve restorative sleep. My practice emphasizes cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia alongside pharmacological management when appropriate, and I work extensively with patients experiencing sleep apnea, circadian rhythm disorders, and chronic insomnia. I'm board-certified in both psychiatry and neurology, and I'm available for virtual consultations to help you identify the root causes of your sleep problems and develop an effective strategy tailored to your specific situation.
Services offered
Through virtual telehealth sessions, I provide comprehensive sleep medicine evaluations for patients with insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome, and other sleep-wake disorders. I combine diagnostic assessment—including sleep history review and, when needed, guidance toward appropriate sleep studies—with therapeutic interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), sleep hygiene optimization, and medication management. I work with a diverse patient population including shift workers, individuals with chronic conditions affecting sleep, and those seeking alternatives or complements to medications. A typical telehealth consultation involves a detailed discussion of your sleep patterns, daytime symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle factors, followed by developing a collaborative treatment plan that may include behavioral strategies, sleep restriction therapy, stimulus control techniques, or pharmacological approaches.
