About CBT-I

Chronic insomnia can arise initially from periods of illness, chronic pain, change of life, stress, grief, etc, and can be perpetuated by behaviors and thoughts surrounding sleep. CBT-I addresses the underlying causes of insomnia and replaces unproductive behaviors and thoughts with more effective strategies to help create normal sleep.

Even in instances where a medical or mental health condition still exists, CBT-I helps people resolve the insomnia. Because good sleep is so important to our physical and mental health, better sleep via CBT-I has even been shown to improve underlying medical or mental health conditions.

CBT-I has been shown to be more effective than sleeping pills in the long term and is recommended as the first line treatment for chronic insomnia by major medical organizations.
