Insomia is pervasive in our society these days for many reasons, and to the person suffering feels intractable. While it may feel hopeless, it is not. Studies have shown that cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is currently the most effective treatment and significantly more effective than prescription sleeping pills. The National Institute of Health and The American College of Physicians recommend CBT-I as the first line therapy for insomnia.
CBT-I is a highly structured, five session treatment staggered over six weeks. It can be delivered effectively in either individual or group format which allows clients to opt for more individual attention or to opt for an equally effective but less costly group format.
