Is Online Sleep Therapy effective for Insomnia?
Here we have 2 questions really:
- is it CBT for insomnia effective?
- is it online CBT for insomnia as effective?
Good new, both are a YES!
CBT for sleep, or CBT-I, has been highly researched and has been shown to be an effective treatment for some sleep disturbances (Riemann & Espie, 2018).
More often than not, and in the past, chronic insomnia has been taken as a secondary problem, and not really given the importance that it should (Williams et al, 2013).
Online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional face to face therapy, without the barriers that the latter brings.
So Online Insomnia therapy from specialist therapists, like The Online Therapy Clinic, is a very effective and great alternative to medication.
How important is to access good quality sleep and have Online CBT Counselling for Sleep – CBT-i?
As an Online Sleep Therapists, we always ask about sleep and first and foremost, we suggest to do some work on sleep if necessary, which may involve part of one session or a full session, and we review this in 2 – 3 weeks.
Sometimes, this is straight forward and easy, other times it is harder to tackle at the beginning of CBT online sleep therapy. But it does not really matter, because time and time again we see therapy having better outcomes more often than not.
We have delivered specilised insomnia treatments to people of all walks and around the world.
The one million dollar question about sleep therapy, is it safe?
Online sleep therapy or sleep coaching or CBT-I is a safer, and as effective, alternative to medication for insomnia.
CBT-I does not create addictions.
CBT for sleep targets the behaviours, believes and links between them, to effectively improve sleep (Williams et al, 2013).
CBT-I and Insomia therapy is a shorter intervention, over a longer period of time as changes happen in a slower pace. Therefore, when working with insomnia people may be seen every 2 – 3 weeks after a few first sessions.
Sometimes, insomnia is the cause of anxiety, hence CBT for insomnia may uncover an undelaying anxiety, and this would need to be dealt with in treatment to make significant change to the sleep disturbances. Hence, sessions may need to be more regular.
