Leon Li-Hsiang Yang Featured
Hello, I’m Leon Yang (楊里祥), a licensed counseling psychologist based in Taipei, Taiwan. I work with adults struggling with sleep difficulties — lying awake unable to fall asleep, waking repeatedly through the night, rising too early, or never feeling rested. Insomnia often shows up alongside stress, anxiety, or life transitions, and tends to develop a life of its own: the harder you try to sleep, the more elusive sleep becomes.
My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), the first-line treatment for chronic insomnia recommended by international sleep guidelines — more effective and durable than sleep medications long-term. CBT-I targets the real engines of chronic insomnia: weakened sleep drive, disrupted circadian rhythm, conditioned arousal in the b ...

My main specialty is in the psychological management of adults with Insomnia and sleep difficulties. I've had a special interest in the field of sleep and insomnia since 2002.
I use evidence based treatments such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

After most sessions you will be given something to read, or something to write/think about, or together we might suggest trailing a new strategy or way of approaching things. Implementing new strategies can be challenging and time will be spent in sessions helping you to find ways to approach things differently. Usually the treatment will not take a lot of time during the week but giving some time ...
