AND/BOTH Podcast

In today's episode, we talk with Daniella Marchetti, a clinical psychologist specializing in behavioral sleep medicine. Daniella shares her journey into sleep medicine, motivated by her own postpartum sleep struggles and her discovery of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia. She emphasizes the importance of regular sleep schedules, the pitfalls of social jet lag, and the negative impact of using bed for activities like working or eating. Daniella discusses how she helps mothers, particularly those past the initial postpartum period, reclaim their sleep and highlights the importance of addressing sleep issues to prevent conditions like postpartum depression. Additionally, she provides insights into her work at the Miami VA, where she runs insomnia and CPAP groups for veterans, and shares some of her personal interests, like reading and watching Formula One. Daniella also talks about the benefits of teletherapy and her efforts to expand her practice to more states.
