Toronto, don't let insomnia hold you back. Start your journey to better sleep now.Do you find it difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep? If so, you may benefit from a consultation with a sleep specialist in Toronto, to assess for medical conditions like sleep apnea, and learn about coaching options.Many people benefit from sleep counselling, including cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-i), which has been shown to be highly effective.In our sessions, we will cover the root causes of insomnia and the evidence-based ways to address them. Sessions are interactive: you can ask questions as we go. They are group sessions, but you will be able to receive tailored solutions and guidance too. You can access these sessions from anywhere in Ontario with an Internet connection, after the initial in-person appointment in Toronto.I can answer all your questions about medications, but I will not prescribe you any, since I will not be your treating physician - and because they usually don't work in the long term.Instead, you will learn CBT-i techniques to achieve restful, rejuvenating sleep, including:
- sleep hygiene and stimulus control
- relaxation techniques and apps
- devices ranging from white noise machines to pillows
- stress and anxiety management
- cognitive restructuring
- paradoxical intention
- sleep diaries and sleep consolidation (aka sleep restriction therapy)Why online? Because it's convenient and because online CBT-i works. In an analysis of 1460 participants, it resulted in large improvements in insomnia severity and sleep efficiency (the % of time in bed when you're actually sleeping).Imagine waking up feeling refreshed, energized, and ready to tackle the day ahead. My goal is to empower you with the tools and knowledge that you need to achieve restorative sleep on a consistent basis.
