CBTi

There’s a wealth of scientific evidence showing how effective CBTi is.

Clinical trials have established that CBTi can improve:

-    The quality and quantity of sleep
-    How long it takes you to fall asleep
-    Night-time awakenings
-    Mental and emotional wellbeing

 

CBTi is also recognised as the first line treatment for chronic insomnia by the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE).

 
So if it’s recognised as the most effective treatment option, why isn’t it always the first treatment option recommended?
 
In the UK, a  lack of trained sleep therapists and sleep specialists make it very difficult for NHS patients to access CBTi in the past as waiting lists for NHS sleep clinics are incredibly long.
  
Sleepstation is an online, guided self-help CBTi programme that has been clinically proven to be just as effective as treatment provided in sleep clinics but without the long waiting lists.
 
The first step in treating insomnia with CBTi is to identify the causes of the insomnia. The Sleepstation programme begins with a week-long self-assessment and sleep diary review.
 
Sleepstation’s online CBTi programme is available free of charge on the NHS, just ask your GP surgery about how you can be referred.

 

Insomnia treatments

There are several approaches used to treat insomnia, but one with the most evidence-based is a special type of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) designed for people with insomnia.

CBT for insomnia (CBTi)

CBTi is recommended as the best starting point for treating insomnia that has lasted for more than four weeks (chronic insomnia).

 Unlike sleeping pills, CBTi gets to the root of your sleep problems and offers long-lasting results.

Insomnia often results from stresses and strains in our daily lives coupled with unhealthy lifestyle or sleep habits. 

 

-    CBTi is a sleep therapy that helps you identify and overcome the underlying causes of your sleep problems rather than just reducing the symptoms.

-    CBTi will help you identify things that could be disrupting your sleep and ways to overcome them.

-    CBTi is a highly-effective treatment for insomnia which is proven to have long-lasting results.
