Our approach
We look for causes first: mood, anxiety, trauma, substances, medical conditions and daily routines. Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is the recommended first-line treatment, and we can guide you on its core steps or refer you. When medication is used, we choose it carefully and avoid long-term reliance on habit-forming sleep aids. If sleep apnea or another sleep disorder is suspected, we refer you for a sleep study.
For Nashua patients
Our office is at 215 South Broadway in Salem, NH, about a 30-minute drive east of Nashua. Many Nashua patients also use secure telehealth visits from home, so you do not have to choose between the care you need and the time you have.
Frequently asked questions
Do you prescribe sleeping pills?
Sometimes, short-term and with a plan. Most patients do better long-term with CBT-I and treatment of the underlying condition.
Could my medication be affecting my sleep?
Yes, some medications affect sleep. Bring a full list to your visit.
Do you do sleep studies?
No. We refer to sleep medicine specialists when a sleep study is needed.
Can teenagers be seen for sleep problems?
Yes, as part of our child and adolescent psychiatry service.
