The gap in training
Poor sleep is one of the most common things people bring to a clinic. Yet most professional training covers it in a single lecture, if at all. So clients hear the same advice again and again.
Clinical guidelines recommend one treatment first for long-term insomnia, ahead of sleeping pills.
That treatment is CBT-I.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia is a short, structured treatment that changes the habits and thoughts that keep people awake. You learn each tool, then practise using it with a client in front of you.
Who should join
Add a specialism your clients already ask you about.
Offer a non-drug, first-line option for insomnia.
Support patients with structured sleep care.
Coaches and wellness professionals learn what really helps people sleep, and when to refer someone on.
How the month works
How sleep is regulated, sleep disorders, red flags for referral, the sleep diary and the ISI.
The 3P model, the full assessment interview and formulation.
Sleep restriction, stimulus control and cognitive techniques for sleep worry.
Comorbidity, shift work, cultural context, relapse prevention and an assessed mock session.
Daily practice
Between the weekly live sessions you practise with simulated clients who have insomnia. Each one behaves like a real person: tired, doubtful, sometimes resistant.
The closest thing to a real session: face to face with a client who can see you.
A spoken session, like being in the room. The words have to come in real time.
At your own pace, from your phone, whenever you have ten minutes.
Saved as written transcripts only. We never record audio or video. Daily practice is included for the whole course, and continues after it. Extra sessions can be added for a small fee.
