Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Insomnia

Insomnia is the single most commonly reported health problem in adults, and is often related or co-exists with reports of depression and /or anxiety, Chronic pain, PTSD, and other disorders. What we also know, is the stress to fall asleep can mount over time.

Research shows that CBT-I improves sleep, well-being, anxiety, depression and inflammatory markers in those with depression and pain. Medication and CBT both have well-established research to support insomnia treatment but CBT has longer lasting effects.

Our CBT-I trained Occupational therapists will help you identify what may be interfering with your sleep drive, and help to establish a new healthy sleep routine.

Please call us directly at either of our two locations Hamilton: 905-481-1122 or Toronto/Woodbridge: 416-907-6287 so we can communicate with you about your goals.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia – (CBTI)

insomnia_lrgInsomnia is the single most commonly reported health problem in adults, and is often related or co-exists with reports of depression and /or anxiety, Chronic pain, PTSD, and other disorders. What we also know, is that if someone has insomnia, the stress associated with going to sleep, in order to fall asleep keeps mounting.

We have training to help with the behavioural aspects of insomnia that can:

  • Assess your sleep in a non sleep lab setting
  • Provide sleep management strategies
  • Teach you how to determine your optimal “sleep window”
  • Provide techniques for managing ruminating thoughts and an overactive mind during the night
  • Help troubleshoot the common issues related to sleep conditions

Sessions are available through auto insurance coverage, some extended health insurance coverage and private pay options.
