Starting Insomnia therapy

What is insomnia therapy?

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.

How does insomnia therapy work?

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 Grand Rapids Charter Township 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.

Symptoms of insomnia

Common symptoms of insomnia include:

  • Having a hard time falling asleep
  • Waking up in the middle of the night
  • Waking up earlier than desired
  • Bedtime anxiety about sleeplessness
  • Grogginess during the day due to lack of sleep

Should I go to therapy for insomnia?

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.

What is the best therapy for insomnia?

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.

Is insomnia therapy conducted in person or online?

Insomnia therapy at Thriveworks Grand Rapids Charter Township is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long should you go to therapy for insomnia?

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.

How long does CBT take to work for insomnia?

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.

Need more help deciding?

For those struggling with insomnia, it can seem like there are no answers that actually provide relief from the situation. If you are one of those people, you know exactly what it feels like to lack sleep on a daily basis. All you want to do is lay your head down at night and get a few hours of quality sleep in order to get ready for tomorrow, but that sleep just doesn’t want to come. You may need to take action in order to get your sleep habits back in order, and counseling for insomnia is one option that has the potential to provide assistance. We are happy to offer counseling services to those in and around the Grand Rapids, Forest Hills area, so you are welcome to contact us today to learn more.

One of the challenges that is faced when dealing with insomnia is the uncertainty as to where the problem came from in the first place. There are many potential causes of insomnia, including the following:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Stress
  • Worry
  • Trauma
  • Many more

No matter what it was that triggered your insomnia in the first place, you need to deal with the problem as quickly as possible if you want to get your life back in order. The lack of sleep that you deal with on a daily basis as part of insomnia can be debilitating, and it can truly impact each and every part of your life. Rather than waiting around and hoping it goes away on its own, you should consider taking steps toward correcting the issue with the help of a professional. Counseling for insomnia has the potential to help you start getting the sleep you need once again.

Even if you think you know what it is that is causing your insomnia, or if you think you can solve it yourself, it is still worth talking to a qualified professional about the problem. You may be surprised to know how many treatment options are available for this condition. Hopefully, once you take action and address your lack of sleep head on, you will be able to move on from these issues and start sleeping through the night once again.

My son saw Denise for the first time recently and she was great. She seemed very well informed in every area and so willing to help my son with his anxiety. She actually spent time with us and seemed to care. I'm so glad we found her.

I was in need of a psychiatrist for chronic depression and anxiety. I came across thrive having only a 4 month wait instead 9 to 12 month wait with any other psychiatrist. This was wonderful news. I met Denise as my clinician. She is very empathetic very knowledgeable. She has helped me alot sine my first vist. She is very dedicated to her patients which I truly appreciate. I would highly recommend her for any psychiatric needs. I think she goes above and beyond her role. She is a caring individual. There should be more people like Denise. She needs to be recognized for her work.
