About
Treating Insomnia: A Professional Development Workshop In this two-hour professional development workshop, you will learn how to assess, diagnose, and treat Insomnia using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold-standard, evidence-based approach. Insomnia frequently co-occurs with conditions such as depression, chronic pain, and bipolar disorders, often contributing to stalled treatment progress. Addressing sleep difficulties can be a game-changer in improving overall client outcomes. By the end of this training, you will have a comprehensive understanding of: ✅ The science of sleep – including circadian rhythms, chronotypes, and other key mechanisms behind sleep regulation. ✅ How to assess and diagnose Insomnia – including differentiating it from other sleep disturbances. ✅ Case formulation and treatment planning – learn to develop an evidence-based, structured six-session treatment plan for Insomnia. ✅ Stimulus Control and Sleep Restriction Therapy – how these core CBT-I techniques work and when to apply them. ✅ Insomnia and Neurodivergence – unique considerations for Autistic and ADHD clients, and how to adapt interventions accordingly. ✅ Effective treatment strategies beyond ‘sleep hygiene’ – practical, research-backed techniques that target the underlying causes of Insomnia. Access & Resources: This workshop counts for 2 CPD hours and includes one year of unlimited access to the recording. Downloadable slides are also provided.
