The first video appointment lasts about fifty minutes. Your clinician asks about your sleep, how long the problem has lasted and what you have tried. Chronic insomnia means trouble falling asleep, staying asleep or returning to sleep at least three nights a week for three months or longer.
When CBT-I is appropriate, you spend about two minutes each morning recording your sleep. Your clinician reviews the record and sets times for bed and waking. The plan is adjusted over six to eight weekly visits. Some patients improve within the first few weeks. Learn more about treatment on the how it works page.
Sleep apnea and insomnia often occur together. We treat the insomnia, we have partners who treat the apnea, and our clinician coordinates any referral that is needed.
