Let's face it. You've probably tried it all: mindfullness practices, reading self-help books, taking melatonin, using prescribed sleep medication, maybe you've even enlisted Chat-GPT. Some of it's worked, maybe for awhile. But today, your sleep is not where you'd like it to be. You're still fatigued, drowsy, and generally dreading attempting to sleep tonight.
Let's change this. Since you're here, you probably have heard of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i), you might even know that it is the first line recommended treatment for Insomnia (due to the strong research evidence supporting it's effectiveness and safety). CBT-i can help you change your relationship with sleep so that the struggle is stopped and sleep can become your friend. You can wake up feeling rested and ...

Lorraine Irlam Featured
Hi, my name is Lorraine Irlam. I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor in Vancouver, BC and the founder of Insomnia Help Canada.
If struggling to fall asleep, tossing and turning at night, or waking up too early has become your norm, you are not alone.
Like you, I felt hopeless and desperate about my inability to sleep. And after a 20-year battle with chronic insomnia, I found a way to reclaim my life.
Enter cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (or CBT-I), a practical, drug-free approach backed by decades of research that addresses the causes of your sleep problems. I also find acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and mindful self-compassion (MSC) to be invaluable additions to help people improve their sleep – and their quality of life.
There’s nothing more rewarding ...

Magdalena Blasiak Featured
Hi, I’m Magdalena. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold-standard, evidence-based approach for chronic sleep issues. Chronic sleeplessness is more than just tiredness; it directly impacts your emotional resilience, amplifying anxiety, low mood, and burnout by keeping your nervous system in constant overdrive. Restoring your sleep is often the single most powerful key to restoring your emotional well-being.
My therapeutic style integrates coaching and is warm, gentle, and deeply collaborative. I don't hand down rigid rules; instead, we work side by side as partners to break the cycle of bedtime dread, quiet racing thoughts, and reset your natural sleep rhythms. Beyond CBT-I, I offer compassionate, depth-oriented support for high-functioning teens, you ...

If you've been lying awake night after night, exhausted but unable to sleep, you already know that willpower and sleep hygiene tips aren't enough. Chronic insomnia has a way of becoming self-sustaining, the more you try to fix it, the worse it gets. CBT-I breaks that cycle by targeting the thoughts and behaviors that are keeping your sleep broken, without medication and without an indefinite course of treatment.
Most of my clients with insomnia are high-functioning adults who have been managing poor sleep for months or years, often alongside anxiety or depression. They've tried everything they can think of on their own. What they haven't tried is a structured, evidence-based approach designed specifically for the way insomnia actually works.
CBT-I is the gold-standard, first-line tre ...

Sleep affects everything, and when it's a consistent issue, the smallest things can feel overwhelming. Tired but wired is not how to live, and it doesn't have to be! I am an LPCC working in Sartell, and an LMHC working via telehealth in IA, who specializes in behavioral sleep medicine and I enjoy working with those struggling with sleep issues like insomnia by providing psychoeducation and CBT-I.

I have completed CBT-I training and am pursuing the DBSM certification as well as a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology. My goal is to work with sleep and mental health as a sleep psychologist once I am done. ...

Ryan F.P. Robertson Featured
I take a scientific and person-centered approach that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), neurocounseling, and other evidence-based practices (EBPs) to help you achieve restorative, lasting sleep.
CBT-I is recognized by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine as the gold standard for chronic insomnia, including when insomnia occurs alongside other conditions. The American College of Physicians also recommends CBT-I as the first-line treatment for insomnia before medication. Research shows that most people experience noticeable improvement in four to eight weeks, and the benefits are long-term — unlike sleep medications, which are intended for short-term relief and show limited lasting effect.
My work is grounded in the science of neurobiology, mental health, ...

Elizabeth Bonet, PhD, LMHC Featured
Wouldn’t it be nice to not have to worry about sleep? To know that you can fall asleep within a reasonable amount of time. And to just do a couple of things to prepare yourself, lay your head on the pillow, turn off the light, close your eyes and fall asleep? To wake up feeling like a million dollars, looking forward to the day ahead, feeling happy and refreshed.
I use a combined approach of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia / CBT-I and Hypnosis to improve your sleep and stop Insomnia in its tracks! Some people are not comfortable with Hypnosis or don’t want it as part of their treatment. That’s perfectly fine with me. It’s truly your choice.
Whether you choose me or someone else, people who decide to do CBT-I improve their sleep in 3-6 sessions typically. I want you to slee ...
