Circadian Rhythm Disorders

Treatment for Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorders

Not everyone’s internal clock aligns with typical work or social schedules. Conditions such as Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder or Shift-Work Sleep Disorder can cause difficulty falling asleep or staying awake at desired times.
Our psychiatrists specialize in helping patients realign their circadian rhythms through evidence-based interventions, including:

• Behavioral scheduling to reset sleep and wake cycles gradually.
• Light therapy to reinforce desired sleep patterns.
• Medication adjustments or melatonin supplementation when indicated.

By addressing the biological and behavioral components of these disorders, we help patients achieve consistency, productivity, and improved daytime functioning.
