Conditions We Treat
Sleep Disorders
Sleep is foundational to mental health — and sleep disorders often have psychiatric underpinnings. Our providers address both the symptoms and root causes of poor sleep.
Understanding Sleep Disorders
Sleep disorders can both cause and worsen psychiatric conditions. Anxiety makes it hard to fall asleep; poor sleep worsens anxiety. Depression often disrupts sleep architecture; chronic insomnia increases the risk of developing depression.
At Lyte Psychiatry, we take a comprehensive approach to sleep disorders. We evaluate underlying psychiatric factors and offer both behavioral interventions and medication management to help you achieve restorative sleep.
Common Signs & Symptoms
- Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep — waking up too early unable to return to sleep
- Excessive daytime sleepiness despite adequate time in bed
- Non-restorative sleep — waking up feeling exhausted despite a full night of sleep
- Sleep-related anxiety — racing thoughts or worry that prevent sleep onset
- Nightmares or night terrors that disrupt sleep quality
- Irregular sleep-wake patterns or difficulty maintaining a consistent sleep schedule
