Sleep Issues
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Insomnia and sleep disorders can be one of the most challenging to bring back to harmony, especially after chronic trauma, abuse, or shedding addictions. This is often due to a seriously compromised and disregulated nervous system. This area is one I have much experience in and in addition to using custom session hypnosis recordings and sleep hypnosis recordings, I have an arsenal of tools to help those suffering from trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. We get there by examining the beliefs and emotions associated with the issue and possibly a hypnotic regression, if needed. There are other relaxation techniques we can use to help alleviate symptoms related to insomnia, like breathwork, pineal gland breathing, tapping, EMT, NLP, Gestalt, and more. Within the protocol is a goal to reset your nervous system, and we do this partly by programming in signals that show your nervous system it is safe to relax. We use emotional regulation commands and techniques to reinforce this. We can use the breathwork and hypnosis to quickly get you out of an agitated state (such as when you wake up with racing thoughts), through binaural synchronization of right and left sides of the brain from high Beta to Alpha then Delta brainwaves.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
One of our clinicians at Alignment Psychotherapy PLLC specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), an evidence-based, first-line treatment for chronic sleep difficulties. This approach focuses on identifying and changing the thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that interfere with healthy sleep, rather than relying solely on medication. Our clinician works collaboratively with clients to address issues such as difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing non-restorative sleep. Treatment may include strategies like sleep scheduling, stimulus control, cognitive restructuring around sleep-related anxiety, and building sustainable sleep habits that align with the body’s natural rhythms. With a structured yet personalized approach, CBT-I can lead to lasting improvements in sleep quality and overall well-being. Our goal is to help clients regain confidence in their ability to sleep and develop practical tools that support long-term, restorative rest.

Dyani Saxby
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP, DBSM
As a board certified sleep psychologist (diplomate of behavioral sleep medicine) I am able to treat complex sleep problems. I offer cognitive behavioral therapy and ACT approaches for insomnia. In addition, I offer imagery rehearsal therapy for nightmares, assistance with CPAP adjustment for sleep apnea, hypnosis for parasomnias (e.g., sleep walking, eating, sleep paralysis). Finally, I offer behavioral strategies for clients who have disorders of hypersomnolence (hypersomnia and narcolepsy). I have had positive results incorporating hypnosis for insomnia as well as hypnosis for improving energy and reducing fatigue associated with narcolepsy and hypersomnia.
