Home / Sleep Disorders Treatment
Over 70 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep disorders — and poor sleep is both a symptom and cause of mental health conditions.
Sleep and mental health are deeply interconnected. Poor sleep can worsen anxiety, depression, ADHD, and bipolar disorder — and mental health conditions can cause or worsen sleep problems. Addressing sleep is often a critical component of psychiatric care.
DLH Consulting evaluates and treats sleep disorders as part of comprehensive psychiatric care, including insomnia, sleep disruption related to psychiatric conditions, and medication-related sleep changes.

We accept most major plans including:
Difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early, causing significant daytime impairment — occurring at least 3 nights per week for 3+ months.
Excessive sleepiness despite adequate nighttime sleep, significantly impairing daily functioning.
Repeated, distressing nightmares causing significant distress — common in PTSD and depression.
Sleep problems caused by or worsening anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, or PTSD.
Frequently yes. Sleep problems are often a symptom of underlying anxiety, depression, or PTSD. When the underlying condition is treated, sleep often improves significantly.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is the gold-standard treatment for chronic insomnia. It is more effective than sleep medications in the long term and has no side effects. It involves sleep restriction, stimulus control, and changing unhelpful thoughts about sleep.
Some sleep medications are safe for long-term use; others are intended only for short-term use. Your provider will help you choose the most appropriate option based on your specific situation, other medications, and health history.
DLH Consulting can evaluate and treat many sleep disorders, particularly those related to psychiatric conditions. If a sleep study (polysomnography) is needed to rule out conditions like sleep apnea, we can provide a referral.
Yes. Insomnia and sleep disorders related to mental health conditions are covered by most insurance plans as behavioral health or medical conditions.
