Tinnitus can manifest as a result of physical or psychological issues. I would suggest consulting an ENT prior to consulting a psychiatrist to make sure all is well physically.
Was the patient close to the family member who passed away? Are there any other symptoms of stress and anxiety you have come across? A problem in the sleep cycle and the onset of symptoms suggests that the issue may be psychological. After consulting with a specialist, I advise you to seek therapy as a next step.
Next Steps
Consult an ENT doctor, followed by a psychiatrist.
