We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Ali-Reza Milani to the Sleep & Wake Clinic team on a part-time basis. With an impressive background and extensive experience in psychiatry, Dr. Milani brings a wealth of knowledge to our clinic. Over the years, he has worked in various roles within the healthcare system, where he has made valuable contributions to both clinical care and medical education. He is currently engaged with Alberta Health Services, where he provides high-quality care, and the University of Calgary, where he contributes to training the next generation of healthcare professionals.

Dr. Milani’s expertise in psychiatry and mental health will complement the work of Dr. Payman Hajiazim, our Medical Director, as they collaborate on providing innovative treatment options for patients at our clinic. One of his key initiatives, he will be involved in is the delivery of cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) group therapy. This evidence-based therapy has been proven to be highly effective in treating insomnia by addressing the underlying psychological factors contributing to sleep disturbances.

By offering CBT-I group therapy, Dr. Milani and Dr. Hajiazim will help patients improve their sleep quality and overall mental health. This collaborative approach ensures that patients receive the most comprehensive and personalized care possible, fostering not only better sleep but also long-term improvements in mental well-being.

We are excited about the valuable insights and expertise Dr. Milani brings to the Sleep & Wake Clinic. His dedication to patient care and education will help us further enhance the quality of care we provide, and we are confident that his addition to our team will significantly benefit our patients. As we continue to grow and expand our services, we look forward to the positive impact Dr. Milani will have in supporting the mental health and sleep health needs of our community.
