It is estimated that one in ten U.S. adults suffers from chronic
insomnia. If left untreated, chronic insomnia reduces quality of
life and increases risk for psychiatric and medical disease,
especially depression and anxiety.
The Overcoming Insomnia treatment program uses evidence-based
cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) methods to correct poor sleep
habits. CBT has been proven in multiple studies to improve sleep by
reducing time spent in bed before sleep onset, reducing time spent
awake after first sleep onset, and increasing the quality and
efficiency of sleep. Developed by Jack D. Edinger and Colleen E.
Carney, this second edition has been thoroughly updated according
to the DSM-5, which now conceptualizes insomnia as a sleep-wake
disorder, rather than a sleep disorder only. The DSM-5 has also
eliminated the differentiation between primary and secondary
insomnias, so this program provides an expanded discussion of
daytime related issues as well as delivery issues specific to those
with comorbid mental and medical problems. Patients are first given
information about healthy sleep and the reasons for improving sleep
habits, then a behavioral program is developed to address that
patient's specific sleep problems. Use of a sleep diary, assessment
forms, and other homework (all provided in the corresponding
patient Workbook) allows client and therapist to work together to
develop an effective sleep regimen tailored specifically for each
client, and several sessions are dedicated to increasing compliance
and problem-solving.
