Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Courtesy of the Mayo Clinic: “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia is a structured program that helps you identify and replace thoughts and behaviors that cause or worsen sleep problems with habits that promote sound sleep. Unlike sleeping pills, CBT-I helps you overcome the underlying causes of your sleep problems. To identify how to best treat your insomnia, your sleep therapist may have you keep a detailed sleep diary for one to two weeks. The cognitive part of CBT-I teaches you to recognize and change beliefs that affect your ability to sleep. This type of therapy can help you control or eliminate negative thoughts and worries that keep you awake. The behavioral part of CBT-I helps you develop good sleep habits and avoid behaviors that keep you from sleeping well.” Specific CBT-I techniques include the following:
Sleep Control: Removing factors that condition the mind to resist sleep.
Sleep Restriction: Reducing the time spent in bed to increase the mind-body willingness to sleep the following night. Once sleep has improved, the time in bed is gradually increased.
Sleep Hygiene: Changing basic lifestyle habits that influence sleep, such as smoking or drinking too much caffeine late in the day, drinking too much alcohol, or not getting regular exercise.
Relaxation Training: Calming the mind and body using meditation, imagery, and muscle relaxation.

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Sleep is the cornerstone of physical health, emotional balance, and mental clarity. Yet millions of people struggle each night due to shift work, irregular schedules, stress, and deeper sleep disorders. Hypnosis offers a gentle yet effective way to support better, more restorative sleep. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation, focused attention, and therapeutic suggestions to help calm the nervous system, reframe unhelpful sleep beliefs or patterns, reduce subconscious triggers disrupting rest, and train the mind and body to expect, and achieve, deep sleep.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
When sleep becomes impossible—whether you can't fall asleep, can't stay asleep, or wake exhausted despite hours in bed—your body is telling you something. Once medical causes are ruled out, we'll explore what's really keeping you awake: the unresolved trauma your mind processes at night, the anxiety that won't quiet, the hypervigilance that won't let you rest. Together, we'll address both the practical factors (diet, routines, relaxation practices, exercise, stress) and the emotional wounds underneath. You'll learn to regulate your nervous system for sleep, process what's haunting your nights, and reclaim rest as something safe rather than something feared. Sleep is possible again.

Nina Hopmeier
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.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are struggling with a sleep disorder, you may feel exhausted yet unable to rest. You might lie awake with racing thoughts, wake frequently through the night, or struggle to fall back asleep once you are up. Over time, poor sleep can affect your mood, concentration, relationships, and overall health. The frustration of being tired but unable to sleep can feel discouraging and isolating.
At Selah Counselling, we understand that sleep is closely connected to your nervous system, stress levels, emotional health, and daily rhythms. Together, we explore what may be contributing to your sleep disruption, whether it is anxiety, trauma, lifestyle patterns, or underlying stress. We focus on building practical sleep hygiene strategies, calming the nervous system before bed, and addressing thought patterns that keep you alert. Our goal is to help you restore a sense of safety and rhythm at night so your body can return to more consistent, restorative rest.

Richmond, British Columbia is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities outside of Asia — with Chinese Canadians comprising a significant majority of the population and Mandarin and Cantonese widely spoken — creating a therapy community where demand for Chinese-language and culturally competent therapists far exceeds available supply. The city's proximity to Vancouver International Airport and its role as a gateway community for recent immigrants from Hong Kong, mainland China, and Taiwan shapes a therapy landscape particularly attuned to immigration stress, cross-cultural family dynamics, and the identity challenges of first-generation residents. Richmond Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community that is increasingly building capacity in Chinese-language care. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains a significant barrier, and many therapists in Richmond invest considerable clinical energy in normalizing therapy as part of their work.
