Online Sleep Disorder therapists in Florida
Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., DBSM
We help people with insomnia overcome the thoughts and behaviors that keep them awake at night, including anxiety or worries, which are often experienced as “my brain won’t shut off." Research has shown that chronic problems with sleep can lead to symptoms of depression and worsen anxiety as well as exacerbate medical issues. Drs. Kessler has Diplomate status in behavioral sleep medicine (DBSM), specialized training in treating insomnia with CBT-I, which is a non-medication approach that has been shown to be effective in treating insomnia in over 80% of cases.
CBT-I: Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) helps people change their thoughts and behaviors about sleep. CBT-I is a short-term, evidence-based treatment that can help people with insomnia improve their sleep quality and get more restful sleep. In many cases it can also help you get more sleep.
CBT-I typically involves multiple components. You will work with your therapist on each of these as needed, individualized to your sleep issues, with most people seeing significant improvement in 3 to 6 visits.

Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Courtesy of the Mayo Clinic: “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia is a structured program that helps you identify and replace thoughts and behaviors that cause or worsen sleep problems with habits that promote sound sleep. Unlike sleeping pills, CBT-I helps you overcome the underlying causes of your sleep problems. To identify how to best treat your insomnia, your sleep therapist may have you keep a detailed sleep diary for one to two weeks. The cognitive part of CBT-I teaches you to recognize and change beliefs that affect your ability to sleep. This type of therapy can help you control or eliminate negative thoughts and worries that keep you awake. The behavioral part of CBT-I helps you develop good sleep habits and avoid behaviors that keep you from sleeping well.” Specific CBT-I techniques include the following:
Sleep Control: Removing factors that condition the mind to resist sleep.
Sleep Restriction: Reducing the time spent in bed to increase the mind-body willingness to sleep the following night. Once sleep has improved, the time in bed is gradually increased.
Sleep Hygiene: Changing basic lifestyle habits that influence sleep, such as smoking or drinking too much caffeine late in the day, drinking too much alcohol, or not getting regular exercise.
Relaxation Training: Calming the mind and body using meditation, imagery, and muscle relaxation.

Jackie Ma
Psychologist, Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology
I am competent in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which is a gold standard treatment for this condition. As a result of my training experiences, I have also worked with individuals with sleep apnea who are struggling to use their CPAP/BiPAP machines consistently due to anxiety or fear. I utilize a treatment called CPAP desensitization to address such concerns. I have also worked with individuals with circadian rhythm disorders and hypersomnia.

Self-hypnosis helps tremendously with any sleep related issues.
5-PATH (The Five Phase Advanced Transformational Hypnotherapy) is a comprehensive way to address and release all negative emotions, perceptions and change the inner programs (early life negative beliefs and subconscious decisions) that trigger those emotions and perceptions. It is a also a powerful way to change habits and behaviors by coding in specific behavioral patterns directly into the subconscious mind.

Insomnia is a great stressor for many people. We can go to extreme lengths to get a "good night's sleep". Did you know was was far simpler than all the gadgets, medicines, and rituals? I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to help people improve the quality and quantity of their sleep. Finally getting a good night's rest can be a great starting point to treating anxiety and depression. If you are not sleeping great, then these other problems can be more resistant to treatment.

Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
In addition to cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), I also provide imagery rehearsal therapy (aka nightmare rescripting) to address problems with recurrent, distressing dreams. Because sleep issues often co-occur with other mental health problems, such as mood and anxiety concerns, I am able to integrate CBT-I with therapies targeting these concerns. When working on improving sleep with clients, I carefully track their progress week-to-week, and typically observe noticeable improvements within a relatively short timeframe.
