Sleep and Insomnia Treatment
Insomnia and sleep difficulties can have devastating effects on your mood, energy level, focus, and overall health. Quality sleep therapy can transform your life by reducing anxiety, improving cognitive function, strengthening your immune system, and enhancing emotional regulation. CBT for Insomnia specifically offers long-lasting results without medication side effects, addressing the root causes rather than just symptoms. Elise is highly trained and has unique expertise in sleep and insomnia treatment, rooted in research but customized to your individual needs to maximize improvement in your quality of life. Her approach combines evidence-based techniques with personalized care to help you rediscover the restorative power of restful sleep.
Individual therapy services provide personalized support for clients navigating a wide range of challenges, including stress management, life transitions, work-related pressures, depression, anxiety, and other conditions. I believe that effective therapy begins with understanding your unique circumstances and goals. Together, we'll develop a tailored treatment plan that addresses your specific needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT). This integrative approach allows us to combine techniques that best support your healing journey, building practical skills to help you move toward greater resilience, self-awareness, and fulfillment in your daily life.
