Insomnia is a pervasive problem among adults that impairs cognitive
abilities and the immune system, and it can intensify other mental
and physical disorders. Yet, existing medical, psychological, and
alternative treatments have only limited success in treating this
persistent disorder. In this clinical guide, Jason Ong introduces
mental health practitioners to an innovative, evidence-based form
of treatment to treat chronic insomnia: mindfulness-based therapy
for insomnia (MBTI). MBTI is an 8-session group intervention that
combines mindfulness meditation with principles and strategies
derived from cognitive behavioral therapy. Through guided
meditations, group discussions, and daily activities performed at
home, participants cultivate greater self-awareness and change
their unhealthy thoughts and behaviours surrounding sleep to reduce
stress, sleeplessness, and other insomnia symptoms long after
treatment has ended. As well as teaching mental health
professionals how to integrate MBTI into their own practices
through detailed session-by-session guidelines, this book helps
practitioners evaluate potential participants prior to treatment by
assessing any physical and psychological issues that underlie their
insomnia and determining whether MBTI will be appropriate for them.
Practitioner competency is also given special focus.
