Treatment for Insomnia & Sleep Disorders
Poor sleep affects nearly every part of our lives. Having insomnia feels like being trapped in a relentless cycle of exhaustion and frustration. Despite feeling overwhelmingly tired, sleep remains elusive, with your mind racing through worries and random thoughts.
Each sleepless night leads to days filled with fatigue, irritability, and a foggy mind, making it hard to function and enjoy life. It's a draining experience, where the simple act of falling asleep becomes a nightly battle you can't seem to win.
Most people don’t know that the most effective treatment for insomnia doesn’t come in the form of a pill.
Instead, we can help you get control over your sleep again through an evidence-based treatment called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) that helps retrain your thoughts and behaviors to get you the rest you deserve.
We also offer evidence-based treatments for nightmares (especially trauma-related nightmares) called Exposure, Relaxation, and Rescripting Therapy
Treatments for insomnia and sleep problems include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) offers a holistic and evidence-based approach to treating sleep difficulties. Unlike medication-focused treatments, CBT-I targets the underlying behaviors and thoughts that contribute to insomnia. Through a combination of cognitive restructuring, sleep hygiene education, and behavioral techniques, individuals learn to identify and modify factors that disrupt their sleep patterns. CBT-I helps individuals establish a consistent sleep schedule, improve sleep environment, and develop relaxation techniques to promote better sleep quality. By addressing both the physical and psychological aspects of insomnia, CBT-I empowers individuals to overcome sleep difficulties and achieve restorative and refreshing sleep without the need for medication.
Exposure, Relaxation, and Rescripting Therapy (ERRT)
Exposure, Relaxation, and Rescripting Therapy (ERRT) is a specialized and highly effective treatment for nightmares associated with trauma. By combining elements of exposure therapy, relaxation techniques, and cognitive rescripting, ERRT offers individuals a structured pathway to alleviate distressing nightmares. During therapy sessions, individuals are guided to gradually confront the content of their nightmares in a safe and supportive environment. Through relaxation exercises, they learn to manage anxiety and physiological arousal associated with the nightmares. The rescripting component involves rewriting the narrative of the nightmare to create a more positive and empowering outcome. ERRT empowers individuals to reclaim control over their sleep, reduce nightmare-related distress, and ultimately promote a sense of safety and well-being during nighttime hours.
