INDIVIDUAL THERAPY · FORT SASKATCHEWAN & ONLINE ACROSS ALBERTA
You’re tired all day. Then you get into bed and your mind starts doing the math on how many hours you have left. Or you fall asleep easily and wake at 3 a.m., already worrying about tomorrow. When sleep starts to feel like something you have to get right, even getting into bed can feel stressful.
What is CBT-I?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is a structured, evidence-based treatment for chronic insomnia in adults. We look at how your sleep schedule, time awake in bed and worries about sleep interact. From there, we work on changes that fit your life and help make bedtime feel less like a test.
What we might work on together
Understanding your sleep. A sleep diary can help us see what happens across the week and choose where to start.
Changing the pattern around bedtime. We may work with sleep timing and the habits that connect being in bed with being awake and alert.
Taking some pressure off sleep. We’ll get curious about the thoughts that show up on hard nights and how they affect what you do next.
Can I do CBT-I virtually?
You can ask about virtual CBT-I from anywhere in Alberta or meet with me in Fort Saskatchewan. We can talk about what your nights have been like, what you’ve already tried and whether CBT-I fits what you need.
Let’s talk about what would help
I’m Brittany Hayes, a Registered Provisional Psychologist. I offer in-person therapy in Fort Saskatchewan and virtual counselling across Alberta. A consult gives us a chance to talk about what’s been happening with your sleep and where we might begin.
