Meet Dr. Ahmed Tar, Post Doctoral Fellow at Helyx Health in San Francisco, Palo Alto, and Beverly Hills, CA

Dr. Ahmed Tar is a clinician with a passion for health psychology who explores the ways physical health and emotional well-being are deeply connected. He provides care for individuals facing anxiety, depression, and adjustment challenges, with a special interest in how sleep influences mood, resilience, and relationships. His approach highlights the restorative role of sleep in healing, especially for those navigating trauma or significant life stressors.

Sleep is one of the most essential foundations of health, yet it’s often the first thing we overlook. Poor or disrupted sleep doesn’t just cause fatigue—it impacts stress levels, memory, and how we connect with the people closest to us. These challenges can be particularly difficult in relationships, where one partner’s insomnia or sleep apnea can affect both, leading to irritability, distance, or conflict. Restoring healthy sleep not only supports individual well-being but also strengthens communication, closeness, and overall relationship satisfaction. 

In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Ahmed Tar has spent years conducting research at the intersections of wealth, health psychology, sports, and sleep, advancing understanding of how these domains influence resilience and long-term well-being.
