This condition can disrupt work, relationships, and daily living, leaving individuals frustrated and fatigued.

At Reverent Health Psychiatry, we provide accessible virtual care for hypersomnia in New York and Tennessee, helping patients find the right balance through personalized treatment and compassionate support.

What is Hypersomnia?

Hypersomnia involves persistent excessive sleepiness that isn’t explained by poor sleep habits alone. Unlike occasional fatigue, hypersomnia is a chronic condition that often requires professional evaluation and treatment.

Common symptoms include:

• Feeling excessively sleepy during the day
• Sleeping longer than 9–10 hours at night, but still feeling unrefreshed
• Difficulty waking up or staying awake
• Brain fog, poor concentration, or memory issues
• Irritability or low mood due to lack of energy

How Reverent Health Psychiatry Can Help

At Reverent Health Psychiatry, we address hypersomnia through a personalized, evidence-based approach, including:

• Medication management to promote wakefulness and regulate sleep-wake cycles.
• Brief supportive therapy to address the emotional impact of chronic fatigue.
• Referrals for specialized therapy, such as CBT for insomnia-related anxiety or behavioral sleep interventions.
• Collaboration with primary care or sleep specialists to ensure an integrated approach to treatment.
• Patient-centered care that respects your experiences and empowers you in managing your condition.

Treatment Options (General Overview)

• Medications: Stimulants or wake-promoting agents may be prescribed when appropriate.
• Therapy referrals: CBT or behavioral sleep therapy to address maladaptive patterns and sleep anxiety.
• Lifestyle recommendations: Sleep hygiene strategies, structured schedules, and reducing alcohol or sedative use.
• Holistic care: Attention to coexisting conditions such as depression or anxiety that may worsen fatigue.
