Sleep More. Worry Less.


Is fatigue running your life?

Sleep has been a problem for awhile, but there always seems to be a reason why it isn’t a priority.

You think “It’s fine, I’ll sleep better when . . .”

  • I lose the weight.

  • Work dies down.

  • The holidays are over.

  • The kids go back to school.

  • I get some time off.

  • I start eating better.

How long have you been waiting for it to get better?

Insomnia disrupts more than just your sleep. It impacts your . . .

Insomnia doesn’t have to last forever.

Sleep therapy can help you get deeper and more restful sleep. But it’s also so much more than that. You’ll learn flexibility, skills for thinking differently, and ways of responding to your body’s needs that will serve you in every other area of your life.

People who see me for sleep therapy say things like . . .

I’m not worried or fearful anymore and I have so much hope for the future.

I don’t feel stressed about my sleep anymore.

I feel confident in my body’s ability to get the rest it needs.

My family sees a night and day difference in my mood.

My partner loves that I’m more calm and present with them.

I’m getting so much more done during the day, and actually feel good doing it!

Our body and our brain know how to sleep.

They have biological mechanisms that regulate sleep without us having to do much other than let them do their job. Throughout our lives there are times when sleep gets off track and insomnia shows up. It tends to last a few weeks before your brain adapts and works through it. 

However, sometimes the way we respond to that temporary sleep loss prevents our brain from adapting. We get stuck in a cycle of trying harder and harder to control our sleep, yet feeling less and less in control, and that cycle cements into a new pattern.

Once this happens, our sleep needs more than just time to work itself out. We have to take active steps to rewire our brain and body’s sleep mechanisms, by identifying the thought and behavior patterns getting in the way of sleep and applying a hard reset

This is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I).

Sleep Hygiene

vs.

Sleep Treatment

Think of it this way. If you have healthy gums, you don’t need to do much to keep them healthy other than brushing your teeth and flossing regularly. Basic stuff. But if you get gingevitis, brushing and flossing alone won’t cut it, you need a dental treatment. 

With sleep, we’re often told: just exercise, limit caffeine and alcohol, don’t use technology late at night and you should be good to go! That’s great for supporting continued healthy sleep in those who already sleep well. But if you have insomnia, basic sleep hygiene isn’t going to cut it, you need a sleep treatment.

According to the American Academy of Physicians . . .

CBT-I is the gold standard, first line treatment recommended for Insomnia. Research shows CBT-I has the same results as sedative/hypnotic medications, and even shows greater results than those sleep meds over time. 

CBT-I helps us set new sleep patterns that will continue to support better and better sleep over time. And the best part is that if sleep ever gets off track again in future, we don’t have to be afraid.

We know exactly what to do and we have confidence that it will work.
