How long has it been since you had a good night of sleep? Do you toss and turn trying to fall asleep? Do you worry about your insomnia?
It is challenging to start a new day feeling tired because there haven’t been enough hours of restorative sleep. The concentration and focus are lower than usual, we may feel foggy, irritable, and impatient with others. And if this is a problem for you, you’re not alone in your struggle. One in four people are unsatisfied with the quality of their sleep, and 1 in 10 say insomnia negatively impacts their life during the day.
CBT Psychology now offers a Program for Insomnia that can help you.
Aaron Arkin is a Registered Sleep Therapist with over 20 years of experience helping people get better sleep.
The CBT Overcoming Insomnia Program, led by Aaron, uses evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (I-CBT). The program can help you identify thoughts and behaviors related to sleep that can be causing problems. Then, those problems are adjusted in order to support better sleep.
It involves an intake session to learn about your particular struggles around sleep and 4 sessions.
This program will help you with:
Understand sleep – What happens during sleep, the different phases of sleep, and where things are going wrong
Use sleep scheduling techniques – Adapting your sleep schedule to your lifestyle and habits
Control outlying things interfering with sleep – A look at external factors that can cause sleep issues
And more!
Aaron’s approach to helping people with insomnia is based on his broad experience working with people just like you who struggle with sleep disorders. In 2013, he developed a specialized Insomnia Program to help people facing behavioural sleep issues. He uses some of those same strategies to help others manage insomnia symptoms effectively in just 5 sessions.
