FAQ

Have any questions?

How do you treat insomnia?

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT‑I), a structured, evidence-based approach that helps you change sleep habits and thoughts that interfere with sleep. CBT‑I focuses on improving sleep quality without medication.

What is the evidence for these treatments?

CBT‑I is the first‑line treatment for insomnia and is supported by extensive research showing moderate to large improvements in sleep quality, efficiency, and time to fall asleep, with lasting benefits after treatment ends.

What if I have had sleep problems for years?

Both insomnia and nightmares can be long‑standing, but they are still highly treatable with structured approaches like CBT‑I and IRT. Treatment is adjusted to your starting point and progresses at a manageable pace.

Do you prescribe medication?

No. I don’t prescribe medication. My role is to provide structured, non‑medication treatment. You're welcome to work with a prescriber in addition to working with me.

Hi, I am Christopher 👋

Hi, I am Topher

I am a Clinical Social Work Associate (CSWA) specializing in structured, evidence‑based treatment for insomnia and nightmares. My practice is built around Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT‑I) and Imagery Rehearsal Therapy (IRT), two first‑line approaches for improving sleep and reducing distressing dream patterns.


I use a clear, step‑by‑step treatment process designed to help clients reset their sleep patterns, reduce nighttime wakefulness, and decrease nightmare frequency while building a greater sense of control over sleep.


My work focuses on practical skills, daily tracking, and targeted interventions that address the behaviors and thought patterns that disrupt sleep. Treatment is structured, measurable, and oriented toward building long‑term sleep stability.


I do not provide insight‑oriented or exploratory therapy. Instead, I offer a focused, predictable program for individuals who want a direct, evidence‑based approach to improving sleep and reducing nightmares.

I am a CSWA who specializes in structured, evidence‑based treatment for insomnia. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT‑I) to help clients reset their sleep patterns and build consistent, restorative sleep.


My approach is practical and skills‑focused—not exploratory therapy. Each session follows a clear process designed for people who want an effective, step‑by‑step method for improving their sleep.
