Finally getting some sleep!
I was a skeptic of CBT but after months of poor sleep I was willing to try anything! I met with Dr Tucker twice and my sleep quality has improved tremendously. I am really surprised how quickly he was able to pinpoint my issues and offer suggestions that completely changed the quality of my sleep.
We met over teleconference which was very convenient. Dr Tucker was very attentive and easy to speak with. I cannot recommend him enough; he has dramatically changed the quality of my life!
Thank you, Dr. Tucker!
