Description
We all know the necessity of sleep –yet we often overlook addressing it in therapy. Your clients with PTSD, anxiety, depression and chronic pain are struggling with symptoms of those disorders, and everything is made worse when they aren’t able to sleep.
If your clients aren’t sleeping, do you know what to do about it?
In this recording, I’ll show you successful, proven techniques I’ve developed over the last decade on how to optimize your clients’ sleep – without medication! You don’t need to be a sleep specialist to implement these strategies in your office.
Discover evidence-based strategies to help your clients increase energy during the day, sleep more deeply and re-initiate sleep after it’s been disrupted. In addition, you’ll learn how to easily integrate these strategies into existing treatment for trauma, anxiety, depression and chronic pain.
Watch and discover:
- New tools to assess for sleep quality & sleep disorders other than insomnia
- Strategies to address conditioned wakefulness and restore your clients’ sleep drives
- Sleep logs, worksheets and other tools to use in your clinical practice
- Specific interventions for clients with comorbid PTSD, anxiety, depression or chronic pain
Add insomnia treatment to your therapeutic toolbox!
