What is CBT-I?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is the gold standard and first line of defence for treating insomnia, that the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends over any sleep medications. This comprehensive, evidence-based approach addresses the underlying causes of insomnia through physiological and psychological methods.
​
Evidence supports the effectiveness of CBT-I in addressing sleep issues, even for those with additional health challenges.
By first enhancing sleep quality, this treatment not only aids sleep but also naturally elevates overall mood and mental well-being.

What is involved
Chronic insomnia can’t be fixed solely through improved sleep hygiene. It requires a structured program that amplifies your sleep physiology and circadian rhythms. Similar to rehabilitating an injury with a physiotherapist, this is a skills-based program that involves learning about sleep mechanics and implementing daily changes to unravel ingrained behaviours and promote healthy, resilient sleep.
​
I will guide you through the practical knowledge of the science behind sleep, which will give you the tools to enhance sleep and then keep it on track. The program’s behavioural components build confidence and trust in sleep, reducing anxiety and nervous system stress, and ultimately boosting sleep quality.
​Struggling with getting to sleep, waking in the night, or waking too early? Or are you looking to optimise your sleep for better performance and long-term health?
My unique Four-Session Sleep Reset Program offers a structured approach to resetting your sleep patterns. Over the course of the program, you’ll learn how to realign and strengthen your circadian rhythms, with the ultimate goal of lasting, healthy sleep habits.
4-Session sleep reset program
My unique 4-session program draws upon the main components of CBT-I, while also incorporating circadian rhythm alignment to enhance effectiveness and health benefits. This tailored approach aims to effectively reset sleep patterns, enhancing both sleep quality and overall well-being. This provides a more cost-effective option compared to the standard CBT-I, which is usually delivered over 8-12 sessions.
​
By the end of the program, you’ll have the tools and knowledge to maintain healthy sleep and enjoy its many benefits for life, all without relying on supplements or medications.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia is the gold standard approach, targeting the root cause of insomnia and halting its momentum, with lasting results.
Unlike sleeping pills, which offer a temporary band-aid fix, this approach aims to resolve the root causes of sleep issues and provides sustainable, transformative improvements in sleep quality.
