Insomnia therapy is a tailored form of treatment that addresses chronic sleep disturbances, which can include problems with falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restorative sleep. The goal of Insomnia therapy is to enhance sleep quality, establish healthy sleep routines, and, in turn, improve an individual’s overall well-being by mitigating and reducing the adverse effects of persistent sleep deprivation.
Insomnia therapy combines therapeutic approaches, with a central focus on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors, integrating techniques like stimulus control, sleep restriction, and relaxation training. Thriveworks Alpharetta therapists will also emphasize sleep hygiene education and may include mindfulness and relaxation exercises to improve sleep quality, equipping individuals with effective strategies to enhance their sleep and overall well-being.
Common symptoms of insomnia include:
Symptoms of insomnia often look different for everyone; however, there are some warning signs that can signal the need for insomnia therapy. These include feeling anxious about bedtime, bedtimes getting later and later, energy peaking at night rather than during the day, and drastic caffeine consumption in order to stay awake.
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is one of the most effective forms of therapy for treating insomnia, working to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors through strategies like sleep hygiene and sleep restriction.
Insomnia therapy at Thriveworks Alpharetta is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of insomnia therapy can vary based on the individual’s needs and progress in treatment. Typically, it involves a short series of sessions over a few weeks to a couple of months, with the number and length of sessions decided in consultation with the therapist. Some experience better sleep within this time, while others choose longer therapy to address complex sleep issues or maintain good sleep habits.
Many people start to see improvements in their sleep patterns after about two to three weeks of CBT-I. However, the duration and effectiveness will differ for everyone, so don’t worry if it takes a bit longer to have a strong effect.

Each case of insomnia is different. Certain people cannot fall asleep. Others cannot stay asleep. Still, others seemingly sleep well, but instead of waking rested, they are exhausted in the morning.
A variety of life circumstances or health issues can trigger insomnia, or sleep disturbances sometimes occur on their own.
Stress often brings about insomnia. Significant life events can easily set off sleep disturbances. Think about what has been happening in your life? Have you had a change in job, family, finances, or living situation?
Unfortunately, other health problems and changes can trigger insomnia as a side effect. Menopause, depression, and hyperthyroidism are a few examples of health problems that may bring about sleep disturbances.
Occasionally, insomnia develops on its own, without concurrent health issues.
Anyone who suffers from sleep disturbances also may face the difficulties they cause in daily life.
