Insomnia

When Sleep Doesn't Come Easy, Everything Feels Harder

If you’ve been struggling with sleepless nights — lying awake with racing thoughts, waking up too early, or tossing and turning for hours — you’re not alone. About one-third of adults experience insomnia at any given time. But for highly sensitive people, poor sleep can feel even more disruptive. A restless night can throw your whole system off — emotionally, physically, and mentally.

Insomnia is more than the occasional bad night. It’s a sleep disorder that affects your ability to fall asleep, stay asleep, or feel rested when you wake up. And over time, it can impact your mood, your focus, your relationships, and your overall well-being.

Signs You Might Be Living with Insomnia

  • Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep

  • Waking up earlier than you’d like and not being able to fall back asleep

  • Daytime fatigue, low energy, or sleepiness

  • Trouble concentrating or staying focused

  • Irritability, anxiety, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed

  • Dreading bedtime because it’s become a nightly struggle

  • Feeling frustrated, stuck, or hopeless about your sleep

Sleep isn’t a luxury — it’s a core part of your mental health. When we don’t sleep well, everything else becomes harder to manage — especially for sensitive nervous systems.

The Good News: There’s a Proven Way to Get Better Sleep

I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) — the gold standard treatment for insomnia. It’s a short-term, skills-based therapy that helps you understand and shift the thoughts and behaviors that are keeping you stuck in the cycle of poor sleep.

CBT-I is:

  • Highly effective — research shows it works as well as sleep medication in the short term and better in the long term

  • Structured and personalized — typically completed in 6–8 sessions

  • Focused on real, lasting change — without the side effects of medication

Together, we’ll track your sleep patterns, identify what’s interfering with restful sleep, and use research-backed tools to help you fall asleep more easily, stay asleep longer, and feel better during the day.

You Deserve Rest That Restores You

If bedtime has become something you dread, you don’t have to keep struggling through it alone. With the right tools, your body and mind can relearn how to rest.

Let’s get you back to the sleep your sensitive system needs — and the ease and clarity that come with it.
