My Background and Approach
Techniques I Use
Specialties
-
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT for Insomnia is a short-term, evidenced-based treatment option. CBT for Insomnia works to address difficulty initiating and/or maintaining sleep and/or nonrestorative sleep that results in difficulty functioning in daily life. It may be helpful for sleep disturbance as a result of Stress, Trauma, Anxiety, or Depression. It can be a supplemental treatment option for sleep disturbance related to Chronic Pain, TBI, Circadian Rhythm Disorder and Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a skills-based approach that teaches four different sets of skills. The core DBT skills are Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotional Regulation and Interpersonal Effectiveness. I offer DBT skills support in group settings or individual DBT skills planning sessions (5-10 sessions) to manage a specific target behavior or symptom. Clients are usually established with a primary therapist while participating in either DBT group or DBT skills planning.
Issues I Treat
Specialties
-
Insomnia
Insomnia and sleep disturbance, including difficulties falling asleep, staying asleep, waking early and non-restorative sleep can be both distressing and get in the way of life. Sleep challenges can also exacerbate stress, trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as be related to chronic pain, TBI, circadian rhythm disorders, movement-related sleep disorders (i.e. 'restless leg') and sleep apnea.

Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia
CBT for Insomnia (CBTi) focuses on exploring the connection between the way we think, the things we do, and how we sleep. It may be helpful for sleep disturbance happening from stress, trauma, anxiety, or depression. The first 3 sessions after an intake with Joy consist of a CBT for Insomnia educational group that that orients to the 'science' of sleep (body and mind). Then treatment transitions to the 'art' of sleep and supporting the application of these concepts through individual sessions.
