None of that means you haven’t tried hard enough.

Whether you can’t fall asleep, can’t stay asleep, or can’t stay awake, the first step is understanding why. A consultation starts with an unhurried evaluation of your sleep, health history, medications, and stage of life. When testing will change the answer, I order and interpret home sleep testing myself. Your plan may include CBT-I, CPAP or alternatives, medication when appropriate, and circadian and behavioral strategies. That can be a one-time consultation or ongoing support. Either way, you’ll know why each piece is there and why it fits what’s going on in your body.
Sleep, appetite, metabolism, stress, and hormones all influence one another, especially in midlife, and especially when sleep apnea or chronic sleep loss is part of the picture. As a physician board-certified in Obesity Medicine, I take a whole-person, weight-inclusive approach focused on your health and energy, not just the number on the scale.
Care may include evaluation of medical, metabolic, sleep, and lifestyle factors, a personalized plan with ongoing support, and FDA-approved medications when appropriate. It can stand on its own or work alongside your sleep care.
Weight is not a willpower problem, and I don’t treat it like one.
When your nervous system is stuck on alert, sleep gets harder, and poor sleep makes stress harder to manage. These small groups, rooted in my training with the Center for Mind-Body Medicine, teach practical, evidence-based skills to calm that stress response: breathwork, guided imagery, mindufulness, meditation, and biofeedback. You’ll practice alongside others and leave with tools you can use on your own.
Groups are educational and separate from individual medical care. You’ll find upcoming groups, workshops, and the DreamLife Community under Events.
