My journey in sleep started in 2006, when I was 21 years old. I studied psychology in my second year and immediately started working at the Tartu Psychiatric Clinic in the sleep center department – so I have been involved in this field for almost 18 years in total. I acquired the practical skills of a sleep technologist at the hospital and in 2016 I received the qualification of a somnologist-technologist from the European Commission on Sleep Medicine. NB! A sleep technologist reviews and evaluates sleep studies (polysomnography, polygraphy, etc.), then summarizes the study and sends the results to a sleep physician, who makes a treatment plan based on it.

My education in sleep was supplemented by a master's degree in psychology from the University of Tartu and several studies in the field of psychotherapy. I have completed basic training in cognitive-behavioral therapy and schema therapy. I started counseling insomniacs while working in a hospital. My main clients are generally diagnosed with anxiety disorders and chronic insomniacs. For the past five years, I have also devoted myself to the sleep problems of young mothers, newborns, infants, children and adolescents.
