Sleep disorders are rarely just about sleep...
If you’ve tried sleep hygiene, medications, or even CBT-I and are still waking at 3AM, waking in panic, struggling with nightmares, or feeling wired and exhausted, your sleep issue may require a different path.
At Holistic Sleep Care, we are Psychiatric Sleep Medicine Specialists — treating sleep disorders rooted in stress physiology, trauma, mood instability, circadian disruption, and complex medication patterns.
Our approach integrates behavioral science, thoughtful medication management when appropriate, and intelligent nervous system recalibration to restore stable, sustainable sleep.

Your nights hold the story of your nervous system, your stress, your trauma history, and your overall health. When your sleep is disrupted, the rest of your life is too—your mood, your concentration, your motivation, your relationships, and your sense of well-being.

Sleep Restorative Psychotherapy
Comprehensive Sleep & Nervous System Evaluation
Medication Optimization & Management
CBT-I is the gold standard for uncomplicated insomnia. However, complex or chronic sleep disorders often require more than a single protocol.
Sleep Restorative Therapies integrate behavioral sleep science, trauma-informed interventions (including nightmare-specific therapies), circadian stabilization, and nervous system regulation to address the deeper drivers of sleep disruption.
This is not generic therapy. It is targeted, mechanism-based treatment designed to restore balance to the sleeping brain.
This in-depth evaluation examines sleep quality, nervous system patterns, mental health factors, medication effects, and medical contributors to identify the true drivers of disruption.
When indicated, we coordinate lab testing and referral for sleep studies to rule out structural concerns.
We collaborate with primary care, structural sleep specialists, and therapists to ensure care is integrated — not fragmented.
Clarity first. Precision next.
For some patients, medication plays an important role in stabilizing sleep. For others, medications may be part of the problem.
We carefully review all prescriptions and supplements, assess how they interact with sleep architecture and nervous system function, and make adjustments only when clinically indicated.
The focus is balance, safety, and long-term sleep stability.
