CBT for Insomnia: Your Path to Restful Nights

The drug-free, evidence-based solution for lasting relief from sleep problems.

Tossing and turning night after night, watching the clock, and dreading the exhaustion of the next day? You are not alone. Insomnia can feel isolating and overwhelming, but there is a powerful, lasting solution that doesn't involve medication.

Why CBT-I is the Recommended Solution for Insomnia

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is recognised by the NHS and sleep experts worldwide as the most effective, first-line treatment for chronic sleep problems. Instead of just masking the symptoms, CBT-I empowers you by addressing the root causes of your insomnia, equipping you with skills for a lifetime of better sleep.

"Clinical research consistently shows that CBT-I is a highly effective treatment, with meta-analyses indicating that 70-80% of people with chronic insomnia experience significant, lasting improvements in their sleep."

Our Collaborative Approach to Your Sleep Therapy

CBT-I is a partnership. Together, in a structured and supportive environment, we will:

  1. Analyse Your Sleep Patterns: Using tools like a sleep diary, we'll get a clear picture of your specific challenges.
  2. Challenge Unhelpful Beliefs: We will identify and reframe anxious thoughts about sleep (e.g., "I'll never be able to function tomorrow if I don't sleep now").
  3. Implement Powerful Behavioural Techniques: This includes stimulus control (strengthening the link between your bed and sleep) and sleep restriction (to improve sleep efficiency).
  4. Learn Relaxation Skills: Develop techniques to calm your mind and body before bed.
