Starting this June, Sleep Medicine Consultants is excited to offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—a proven, non-medication-based treatment designed to help individuals overcome chronic insomnia and restore healthy sleep patterns.
What Is CBT-I?
CBT-I is an evidence-based, structured therapy that addresses the underlying thoughts and behaviors that interfere with restful sleep. Unlike sleeping pills that only mask the symptoms, CBT-I focuses on retraining the mind and body for sleep, making it an effective long-term solution for insomnia.
CBT-I typically includes:
- Sleep education: Understanding how sleep works and what affects it
- Sleep restriction: Limiting time in bed to increase sleep drive
- Stimulus control: Re-associating the bed with sleep rather than wakefulness
- Cognitive techniques: Challenging unhelpful thoughts about sleep
- Relaxation strategies: Tools to calm the mind and body before bedtime
Why Choose CBT-I?
Clinical research has consistently shown that CBT-I is the gold standard for treating chronic insomnia. According to the American College of Physicians, CBT-I should be the first-line treatment for adults with insomnia. Benefits include:
- Improved sleep quality and duration
- Reduced time to fall asleep
- Fewer nighttime awakenings
- Lasting results without dependence on medications
