Sleep care for Amherst residents
For commuters to Nashua, Manchester and Milford along Route 101A, poor sleep often comes from stress, anxiety, low mood or irregular schedules rather than a lack of tiredness. We look for the cause first, then build a plan that includes CBT-I principles and careful, limited use of medication when it helps.
Living in Amherst
Amherst centers on a historic village green surrounded by quiet neighborhoods, Baboosic Lake and wooded back roads. Teens attend Souhegan High School, and many adults commute to Nashua, Manchester or Milford along Route 101A and Route 101.
