Is CBT-I right for you?
Clinicians call it chronic insomnia when you have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep or getting back to sleep at least three nights a week for three months. You might lie awake for an hour at bedtime, or wake at 3 a.m. and not get back to sleep.
Your clinician considers your work hours and daily routine when planning CBT-I. Treatment addresses habits and worry that contribute to wakefulness in bed. Tell the clinician about loud snoring or breathing pauses, since sleep apnea often occurs with insomnia. We treat insomnia and coordinate any needed apnea referral with a partner provider.

We confirm coverage before you meet your clinician. A copay is a fixed amount due for each visit. A deductible is the amount you pay before your plan starts paying. You can also pay for visits yourself.
What happens after you book
Your first appointment lasts about 50 minutes and covers your sleep difficulties, their history and treatments you have tried. Afterward, you spend about two minutes each morning on a sleep diary.
Your clinician uses the diary to recommend a bedtime and wake time and make weekly adjustments. Treatment commonly lasts six to eight weeks, with some patients noticing changes in the first few weeks. See How CBT-I Works for the full approach.
