Heather TurgeonMarriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

About

I specialize in helping adults with sleep issues. This may include difficulty falling asleep; night wakings; waking up too early in the morning; or anxiety, racing mind, and negative thinking around sleep. Some of my clients have sleep apnea, which should be treated by a sleep medicine doctor, but the insomnia piece can be treated with CBT-I. My specialties include teens and women in the perimenopause / menopause transition. I use primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which is an evidence-based, short-term program - usually around 4-6 sessions. CBT-I consistently outperforms sleeping pills in both the short and long term, improving sleep onset, total sleep time, and next-day functioning. I am certified with Stanford Behavioral Sleep Medicine.
