WHAT IS CBT-i? CBT-i is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy specifically developed for treating insomnia. CBT-i addresses root causes of insomnia by changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors related to sleep, strengthening your natural sleep system. Extensive research through Harvard, Stanford and UMass medical schools has demonstrated CBT-i to be more effective than sleeping pills in treating chronic insomnia because it It equips you with skills to manage sleep problems, preventing insomnia from returning, unlike pills that stop working when you stop taking them. CBT-i is considered the gold-standard, first-line treatment for chronic insomnia by such organizations as The American College of Physicians, American Academy of Sleep Medicine, The New England Journal of Medicine due to CBT-i's lasting benefits and fewer risks like dependency, while helping patients reduce or eliminate sleeping medication use. ABOUT STEPHANIE LOBROT CMHC I have worked as a clinical mental health counselor in Utah using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to successfully treat clients with anxiety, depression and other mental health challenges. More recently, I found a passion in helping clients find relief from insomnia through CBT-i. I received further training from top researchers in CBT-i through the Stanford University Sleep Health and Insomnia Program (SHIP) where I meet weekly with faculty to review cases and continue learning. I would love to work with you to create a personalized sleep therapy plan that takes into account your own biological clock, your sleep interfering thoughts, behaviors and circumstances. Together we will incorporate behavioral and cognitive strategies along with education on sleep to help you achieve more restful nights and vibrant days.
