Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy works amazingly well for sleep issues. And although sleep disorders and insomnia can be caused by physical or behavioral reasons, experts agree that the leading source of sleep disorders is stress. This can include anxiety, worry, grief, anger, fear or sadness.
The inability to sleep, when caused by stress, is often experienced as inner thoughts and feelings playing out in the mind repetitively. Noise from a racing mind, and being unable to just switch the thoughts off, are common complaints. This is where hypnosis can be the most beneficial. My clients with chronic insomnia have experienced incredible change quickly, with the ability to sleep deeply once again.

Sleep Disorder
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Having inadequate sleep largely impacts quality of life due to an inability to function well in waking state. People often lack physical and emotional energy to engage in daily tasks such as drive, go to work, house chores, and exercise. Sleep problems are often associated with underlying causes. The therapy process involves exploring the history of your sleep issues. We will explore when it began, what was going on for you at the time, and which factors are currently maintaining the sleeping problems. The model that I predominantly use for sleep issues is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with an emphasis on behaviour modification. Our work together will involve exploring the type of thoughts that interfere with having adequate sleeps. Once people recognize the relationship between their thought patterns and sleep issues, they feel hopeful in their ability to challenge thinking styles that are disruptive. We also focus on what behavioural changes we can incorporate into the treatment plan to maximize good quality, restful sleep. If you are someone struggling with sleep issues I would be happy to work with you and devise a treatment plan that fits to your unique needs.

Psychologist, C.Psych.
At MindFit, we know that insomnia and difficulties with sleep can be extremely challenging, frustrating, and exhausting. Our skilled clinical and health psychologists, provide Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) - a structured, brief, and evidence-based approach to managing challenging and frustrating symptoms associated with insomnia/sleep difficulties. CBT-I generally involves identifying thoughts and behaviours contributing to sleep challenges, reframing misconceptions, and introducing helpful behavioural practices (e.g., relaxation training, sleep control) to improve sleep habits. Additional sleep hygiene strategies (including use of a sleep diary to track wake and sleep times) may be discussed.
