Our approach

Four pillars of sleep treatment

Identify Root Causes

Anxiety, depression, medication side effects, or racing thoughts — we look at the whole picture instead of just treating the sleeplessness on its own.

Evidence-Based Medications

We prioritize non-habit-forming options and discuss risks and benefits clearly.

Sleep Hygiene Education

Practical changes to your bedtime routine and environment that complement medication.

Ongoing Support

Regular follow-ups to adjust your plan, with portal and text access between visits if something isn't working.

What Restful Sleep Can Feel Like Again

With the right combination of medication and sleep hygiene changes, many patients fall asleep faster and wake up less throughout the night.

Ready when you are

Real sleep is closer than it feels right now.

We treat the underlying cause, not just the symptom, with options tailored to what's keeping you up.

Understanding insomnia

You're Not Alone

Insomnia can mean trouble falling asleep, waking up repeatedly, waking too early, or never feeling rested — and it's often connected to anxiety, depression, or ADHD.

Many patients find that once we treat their anxiety or depression, sleep naturally improves. We spend 45 minutes with new patients understanding your sleep patterns, stressors, and any underlying conditions.

Common questions

About Insomnia Treatment

Is insomnia actually a mental health condition?

It can be both a standalone condition and a symptom of anxiety, depression, ADHD, or PTSD. A psychiatric evaluation helps determine whether treating an underlying condition will resolve your sleep problems.

Will I become dependent on sleep medications?

We prioritize non-habit-forming options and often use medications that treat underlying anxiety or depression, which help sleep as a side benefit without addiction risk.

How long does treatment take to work?

Some medications work the first night; anxiety or depression medications usually take 2–4 weeks. Most patients notice meaningful improvement within the first month.

Can anxiety medication help me sleep better?

Yes. When we treat the underlying anxiety disorder, sleep often improves naturally, and some anxiety medications have mild sedating properties.

Do you treat sleep apnea or other medical sleep disorders?

Those need evaluation by a sleep specialist or your primary care doctor, but we coordinate care if you have both sleep apnea and insomnia together.
