Because sleep quality is critical to physical and mental health I am passionate about helping people get good sleep. I’ve been a practicing psychologist and an ordained rabbi for many years. I shifted my focus away from individual and couples therapy to behavioral sleep medicine because sleep problems are so widespread and there are not enough specialists to meet the need. The methods I use are evidence-based and trauma-informed. I’ve practiced telehealth exclusively since early 2020. Most people like working this way because of convenience. Therapy is not adversely affected and I am even able to do hypnosis via telehealth. I use a HIPPa-compliant platform.

I’ve practiced CBT for decades and have published research in the area. I now specialize in treating sleep disorders. I received training in CBTi at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and participated in dozens of trainings in behavioral sleep medicine. I have also received training in CBT with hypnosis and CBT for nightmares. In addition, I am a certified telehealth practitioner.
