You Speak. I Listen. Sleep Better.
"When the clinical protocol is done and the person still isn't sleeping — that's who I work with."
My mother ran for her life and suffered a life that robbed her of sleep and gave her a shorter life span than expected.
​
I never had to run.
​
Instead, I found myself wide awake at 3 a.m., staring at the ceiling for the umpteenth time, contemplating why a person who appeared to have everything under control could not manage the one thing that the body is naturally supposed to do.
​
I was a sleep clinician. Twenty years of it. I knew the research, the protocols, the equipment. I helped other people sleep for a living.
​
And I couldn't sleep. How is that for irony?
​
What finally moved the needle wasn't a protocol. It wasn't a device, technique, or prescription. It was being witnessed. Someone staying present with what I was carrying—not to fix it, not to reframe it—just to see it. When what had gone unspoken finally had somewhere to land, my nervous system stopped running the overnight shift on its own.
​
The sleep came back. Deeply. Consistently. For the first time in years.
​
That wasn't a coincidence. It was a sequence. And once I understood it, I built a program around it.
​
It's called ARETE. It starts with one session, face-to-face or by Zoom—sixty minutes, no right words required. You bring what you have. I follow it. Together, we look at what's standing between you and real sleep.
​
The first fifteen minutes are free inside the full 60-minute session.
​
If you've been functional for years and exhausted the whole time, you're not broken. You're adapted. And there's a way through.
​
When you're ready.
ARETE
Arete (Ancient Greek: á¼€ρετή) represents "excellence" or "virtue" of any kind, specifically fulfilling one's highest potential or function. Originating in Greek thought, it emphasizes striving for the best.
