Exhausted all day. Wide awake the moment your head hits the pillow.
The mind that won’t switch off. The 3am ceiling. The dread of another night, then another foggy, short-fused day. Insomnia is rarely “just” sleep — it’s often a nervous system that won’t stand down, especially after stress, trauma, or years of staying alert.
I’m Dr. Samuel. I’ve treated the sleeplessness that has a reason behind it — soldiers and trauma survivors whose brains never learned it was safe to power down. My work starts with therapy that calms the nervous system underneath the insomnia; for clients who want to go further, I can add neurofeedback as an optional, drug-free support that reaches what sleep-hygiene tips never touch.

Real sleep is trainable. Most people don’t need to white-knuckle better habits — they need a nervous system that finally feels safe enough to let go.
Tried every app and tip already? Those target behaviour; therapy targets the why — and neurofeedback can be added if you want to go further. Don’t want sleeping pills? Good news — none of this requires them. Ready for a real night’s sleep? Just say “I saw your website.”
Your first 20 minutes are completely free — no forms, no commitment, no pressure to book. Just a real conversation, in English or فارسی.
