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 Greensboro 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 Greensboro 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.

Insomnia Counseling in Greensboro, NC—Therapists, Coaches, and Counselors

If you are one of the millions of people currently suffering from insomnia, please consider counseling for insomnia to restore that sleep that you have been desperately missing. The human body needs sleep to function correctly, but sleep can be in short supply for those with insomnia problems. We are proud to offer insomnia therapy services at Thriveworks Counseling in Greensboro, NC to those dealing with this frustrating issue, and we would love to speak with you about your sleep struggles sometime soon.

Side Effects of Insomnia

One of the frustrating things about insomnia is that it can come on seemingly out of nowhere. People who once had no trouble at all getting a good night’s sleep can find themselves struggling to fall asleep – or they may have trouble staying asleep once they do nod off. Either way, nothing good can be said about not being able to get the sleep you need to be your best. Among the many ways in which insomnia can affect your life are the following side effects:

  • Placing yourself and others in danger by driving while drowsy
  • Harming relationships due to a short temper and decreased patience
  • Setting back your career due to a lack of focus on the job
  • Poor grades in school

It is almost inevitable that insomnia will have an adverse affect on your day to day life once it becomes a problem for you on a nightly basis. There is simply no way around your need for sleep, so your body can’t possibly perform its best when you haven’t been able to give it proper rest. You shouldn’t have to fight an uphill battle each day due to a lack of sleep, so it would be a good idea to seek out help with your insomnia problem as soon as possible.
