Insomnia therapy is a tailored form of treatment that addresses chronic sleep disturbances, which can include problems with falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restorative sleep. The goal of Insomnia therapy is to enhance sleep quality, establish healthy sleep routines, and, in turn, improve an individual’s overall well-being by mitigating and reducing the adverse effects of persistent sleep deprivation.
Insomnia therapy combines therapeutic approaches, with a central focus on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors, integrating techniques like stimulus control, sleep restriction, and relaxation training. Thriveworks Marietta therapists will also emphasize sleep hygiene education and may include mindfulness and relaxation exercises to improve sleep quality, equipping individuals with effective strategies to enhance their sleep and overall well-being.
Common symptoms of insomnia include:
Symptoms of insomnia often look different for everyone; however, there are some warning signs that can signal the need for insomnia therapy. These include feeling anxious about bedtime, bedtimes getting later and later, energy peaking at night rather than during the day, and drastic caffeine consumption in order to stay awake.
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is one of the most effective forms of therapy for treating insomnia, working to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors through strategies like sleep hygiene and sleep restriction.
Insomnia therapy at Thriveworks Marietta is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of insomnia therapy can vary based on the individual’s needs and progress in treatment. Typically, it involves a short series of sessions over a few weeks to a couple of months, with the number and length of sessions decided in consultation with the therapist. Some experience better sleep within this time, while others choose longer therapy to address complex sleep issues or maintain good sleep habits.
Many people start to see improvements in their sleep patterns after about two to three weeks of CBT-I. However, the duration and effectiveness will differ for everyone, so don’t worry if it takes a bit longer to have a strong effect.
There are many physical and mental causes of insomnia, and many of them can be addressed and remedied with the help of an experienced counselor in Marietta. If you are struggling with insomnia or other sleep problems, reach out to Thriveworks marietta. We’re here to help.
As someone who fights some degree of insomnia, you probably don’t need to be reminded of how many side effects can be experienced when sleep is at a minimum. Do the points on the list below look familiar?
You may be suffering from those side effects and more if you are having trouble getting a good night’s sleep. It’s hard to enjoy your day-to-day life without getting enough sleep to function properly, so you should be looking for a solution to your insomnia problem as soon as possible.
One potential solution is the insomnia counseling that we offer here in Marietta. Our qualified counselors in Marietta will be happy to take the time to learn about your specific case, and they can then offer their suggestions for helping you sleep once again. There are no guarantees that therapy is going to be the right treatment to get you back to sleep, but it is a great place to start. Rather than feeling like you are all alone in the world when it comes to dealing with insomnia, you can have a qualified and experienced counselor on your side.
In order to change your sleep patterns, you’ll have to make some changes while awake. A night of sleeplessness is one thing, but multiple nights over time can reinforce the belief that you “just don’t sleep well.” By making changes to your behavior, you’ll retrain your subconscious out of that negative belief and improve your sleep patterns.
Some techniques include:
As with therapy for any other disorder, counseling for insomnia is not an instant fix. But, with consistent effort, it is possible to see significant improvement.
Being chronically tired from insomnia is exhausting and stressful. Thriveworks Marietta counselors have successfully helped many patients overcome insomnia and all its side effects, and we want to help you too. Learning more about our therapy services is as simple as picking up the phone and giving us a call. Once you decide to take that step, we will be happy to speak with you regarding your treatment options, and we can explain more about exactly what it is that insomnia counseling can do. Thank you for your time, and we hope to work with you soon.
