Assessment first
Care begins with understanding the person's pattern, health context and the factors that may be keeping sleep difficult.
Sleep therapy
When sleep needs individual, evidence-informed support.
Bedtime habits and a comfortable room can help, but they are not substitutes for care when sleep difficulties persist or affect daily life.
CBT-I in plain language
A structured approach to insomnia care.
Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia, often called CBT-I, is a clinician-guided approach that may look at sleep patterns, behaviours and the wider context of a person's sleep.
Tailored strategies
Strategies are adjusted to the individual. A generic internet checklist is not the same as personal care.
Ongoing support
Progress is reviewed with a qualified professional, especially when symptoms, medicines or other health conditions are involved.

Questions to take to a clinician.
- Could my symptoms suggest a sleep disorder or another health issue?
- Would a sleep specialist or CBT-I provider be appropriate?
- Are there changes to medication or routine I should discuss?
Seek care promptly for safety concerns.
Persistent insomnia, loud snoring or observed breathing pauses, severe daytime sleepiness, sudden sleep episodes, or reduced safety while driving or working are reasons to speak with a healthcare professional.
