An Overview
Insomnia treatment at Compassion Recovery Centers
Approximately 12% of Americans have been diagnosed with chronic insomnia, characterized by sleep difficulties occurring at least three times per week for a minimum of three months.
Insomnia affects 10% to 15% of the general population, with higher rates observed among women, particularly during peri-menopausal and post-menopausal stages, and older adults.
About 22% of U.S. adults experience nightly sleep struggles, while 50% face insomnia symptoms at least once a month.
In 2022, 35% of U.S. adults reported not obtaining the recommended seven or more hours of sleep per night.
Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by the inability to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up too early and not being able to go back to sleep. This condition can lead to chronic fatigue, irritability, difficulty concentrating, and a negative impact on overall health and well-being. Many individuals experiencing insomnia may find themselves struggling with daytime sleepiness, low energy, and emotional distress, significantly affecting their quality of life.
At Compassion Recovery Centers, we understand that sleep is a cornerstone of mental and physical health. Our Insomnia Treatment Program is designed to help individuals restore healthy sleep patterns through a combination of evidence-based therapies, lifestyle adjustments, and supportive care.
Comprehensive Care
Our approach to treating insomnia
Insomnia is more than just difficulty sleeping—it’s a complex condition that can have wide-ranging effects on mental health, emotional stability, and physical health. Our comprehensive, personalized approach targets the underlying causes of insomnia and provides clients with the tools they need to improve their sleep and overall well-being.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is considered one of the most effective treatments for chronic insomnia. CBT-I addresses the thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to poor sleep. Through CBT-I, clients learn how to modify unhealthy sleep habits, manage anxiety around sleep, and create a healthier sleep environment. The therapy is highly personalized and often results in long-term improvements in sleep quality.
Sleep hygiene refers to the habits and practices that promote healthy sleep. In our treatment programs, we provide clients with tailored sleep hygiene strategies that include:
- Establishing a consistent sleep schedule.
- Creating a relaxing bedtime routine.
- Reducing the intake of caffeine, alcohol, or nicotine, especially close to bedtime.
- Optimizing the sleep environment (dark, quiet, and cool).
We help individuals recognize the role these daily habits play in their sleep patterns and how making small adjustments can lead to profound improvements.
Many individuals with insomnia experience racing thoughts, anxiety, and stress that interfere with their ability to relax and fall asleep. We incorporate mindfulness and relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and meditation, to help clients reduce anxiety and stress, preparing them for restful sleep.
For some individuals, medication may be necessary to help manage the symptoms of insomnia, particularly in the short term. Our medical team works with each client to evaluate their needs and prescribe appropriate medications, such as sleep aids or anxiolytics, when necessary. Medication is used as part of a broader, holistic approach to insomnia treatment.
For clients with persistent insomnia, we may employ behavioral interventions such as stimulus control therapy or sleep restriction therapy. These approaches help clients break the cycle of poor sleep and re-establish healthy sleep patterns. For example, sleep restriction therapy involves limiting time in bed to increase sleep pressure, which can help individuals fall asleep more quickly and stay asleep longer.
