Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)

CBT-I is a highly effective, evidence-based treatment for individuals struggling with chronic insomnia. Rather than relying on medication, CBT-I helps you identify and change the thoughts, habits, and behaviors that interfere with healthy sleep. It is considered the gold standard treatment for insomnia by sleep experts and medical organizations, including the American College of Physicians.

This structured, short-term therapy typically involves 4–8 sessions and includes:

  • Sleep education to help you understand how sleep works

  • Behavioral strategies such as sleep restriction and stimulus control to improve sleep efficiency

  • Cognitive techniques to reduce anxiety and unhelpful thoughts about sleep

  • Relaxation training to calm the mind and body

  • Sleep hygiene guidance to support long-term sleep health

CBT-I is suitable for adults of all ages and has been shown to improve sleep quality, reduce time spent awake in bed, and promote lasting change. If you experience difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early—CBT-I can help you regain control over your sleep naturally and sustainably.
