Do you have Insomnia? How's your sleep?
Night after night, you lay awake, wondering if tonight will be like the others.
You're sluggish. And desperately tired.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) can help you. It works without medications, and improves sleep in most people who try it. In fact, it is the most efficacious health-related therapy there is.

It's normal for people to have problems sleeping now and again. In fact, once or twice per week people normally might not get all the sleep they need.
However, if your sleep problem has occured at least 3 nights per week, is significantly impacting your quality of life, and your primary care doctor has ruled out other problems such as sleep apnea or narcolepsy, CBTi may be able to help.
CBT for insomnia is for you if…
…other sleep disorders have been ruled out.
…you have a diagnosis of primary insomnia from your PCP or sleep specialist.
…other disorders that contribute to poor sleep have been ruled out (anxiety, stress, other medical conditions)
…your sleep opportunity is not a factor.
You and I will work together to clearly identify the behaviors that are interfering with your ability to sleep, and we'll work together to make a plan for you.
Even if this isn't first reason you come, it's the first thing I'll ask about; the easiest lifestyle changes to make related to anxiety are improving sleep and aerobic exercise. So I'll be asking you, how's your sleep?
