You Know This Feeling...
Lying awake at 3am, exhausted yet completely alert. You've tried everything: apps, supplements, sleep hygiene. Nothing works long-term.
That's because chronic insomnia isn't about lacking tiredness. Your sleep system needs recalibrating, and CBT-I is the only treatment that achieves this.
What Life Looks Like When You Sleep Properly Again
Instead of lying in bed staring at the ceiling at 2am, your head hits the pillow and within minutes, not hours, you’re drifting off.
You wake up before your alarm feeling properly rested. No more dragging yourself to the kettle like a zombie.
You maintain steadier energy from morning until evening without relying on caffeine or sheer willpower.
Your mind feels sharper and present again, as if a fog has lifted.
How CBT-I Fixes Your Sleep
Weeks 1-2: We align your bedtime with your actual sleep capacity, building genuine sleepiness
Weeks 3-4: Your bed becomes associated with sleep, not frustration
Weeks 5-6: Gradually extend sleep duration whilst maintaining quality
83% of clients achieve 6+ hours nightly within 6 weeks
(NICE Guidelines, 2023)
The science: why CBT-I works CBT-I addresses three core problems: Insufficient sleep drive from excessive time in bed Disrupted circadian rhythm from irregular sleep patterns Learned association between bed and wakefulness We systematically resolve all three through behavioural changes, not medication.
Realistic expectations... Not everyone achieves perfect sleep. Most reach 6-7 hours consistently. Some still experience occasional difficult nights but manage them without anxiety. The aim is reliable, sufficient sleep, not perfection. Even partial improvement significantly enhances quality of life for my clients.

Common Questions
How quickly will I see results?
Most clients notice improvement within 2-3 weeks, with significant change by week 4.
What if my schedule is unpredictable?
CBT-I requires consistency most nights. Occasional variation is manageable, but frequent all-nighters or rotating shifts make this unsuitable.
How is this different from apps or sleep hygiene?
Apps offer generic advice. CBT-I identifies YOUR specific sleep disruptors and creates a personalised protocol. It's the NHS-recommended gold standard treatment.
Why only 5 places monthly?
Each client receives 30+ minutes of preparation per session plus bespoke adjustments. This ensures the 83% success rate.
I have anxiety. Can CBT-I still help?
Many clients experience anxiety alongside insomnia. If your anxiety is well-managed and sleep is now the primary concern, CBT-I can help. However, if racing thoughts, worry, or panic are preventing sleep, addressing anxiety first often naturally improves sleep.
