Alert, Marissa

Dealing with sleep problems such as insomnia and sleep apnea can impact many aspects of your life. It can make it hard to show up and affect your performance, relationships, and physical health. As a clinical psychologist, I use research-based approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing to help you cope. We'll work together to make sure you have the tools you need to build healthy sleep habits and address your sleep challenges.
 
I know that getting started with therapy isn't easy and can feel uncomfortable. That's why you'll know what to expect at every step. I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and I look forward to working with you.
