INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT
Poor sleep can be due to many different factors and sometimes lead to Insomnia. Insomnia is characterised by a difficulty getting to sleep, staying asleep and/or waking too early. This can go on for months and really impact on your daily functioning.
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) is the first line treatment for acute or chronic insomnia recommended by The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence NICE. I offer consultation, assessment, recommendations and intervention with individuals who are concerned about the quality and quantity of their sleep. Signposts to specialists in the field of sleep are also offered where necessary.
