Daniel Erichsen

Hi there and thank you so much for visiting this page! I'm Daniel and I'm a sleep physician turned sleep coach and author. Here's a little bit more about me: I grew up in the small town of Eksjo in southern Sweden. The son of an Ethiopian nurse and Danish surgeon, healthcare and immigration came with the territory and I eventually became a physician and moved to the US. Being fascinated with the workings of the brain, I decided to specialize in sleep medicine and trained at the University of Chicago. Working as a sleep doctor in NYC, in Las Cruces, NM and Eugene, OR I saw how much confusion there was in the sleep universe. There was a sense out there that when you have trouble sleeping, you are doomed. You are destined for a life of struggling and dependence on sleep medications. But I also saw something more uplifting: nothing is further from the truth! I'm not saying it's easy by any means, but if you are ready to learn and change habits you can sleep well without relying on anything but yourself. And this is the reason I became a full time educator and coach. I have a YouTube channel called "The Sleep Coach School" where I post several videos weekly. I'm active on social, primarily Twitter and Instagram. If you'd like to see what I'm up to, those are great places to connect. Be well now and be in touch!
