What CBT-I does for your patient

  • Treatment aimed at the insomnia itself

    The work is specific: time in bed, sleep habits, and the thoughts that keep your patient awake at night.

    ACP guideline ↗AASM guideline ↗

  • Skills that outlast the course

    Patients finish with a plan for the bad nights that come later, and the habits to keep using at home.

  • Licensed in Arizona, trained in CBT-I

    The clinician who treats your patient holds an Arizona license and has completed training in CBT-I.

  • Coverage sorted before the first visit

    We check benefits up front, then tell your patient what their plan covers and what they owe.

  • You hear how it is going

    With your patient's consent, we send Insomnia Severity Index scores and treatment milestones as they happen.

Patients to consider for CBT-I

An assessment is worth considering for adults with:

  • Trouble falling asleep, or long stretches awake at night, three nights a week or more for three months or longer.
  • Insomnia that has not lifted even though their depression or anxiety is being treated.
  • Sleep that has not improved on general advice, or a patient who would rather not add another sleep medication.

Adding CBT-I to a current therapy plan

Your patient keeps their therapist. CBT-I runs alongside, as a short course with one subject: sleep.

The clinician sets a sleep window from the patient's daily diary, then adjusts it each week.

Suspect sleep apnea too?

Insomnia and sleep apnea often occur together, and each needs its own treatment. We treat the insomnia and refer on for apnea care when it is needed.

Score your own sleep

Answer all seven questions about the past two weeks. The Insomnia Severity Index adds your answers into a score between 0 and 28. This calculator does not submit a referral or add results to a medical record at Arizona Sleep Center.

For the first three questions, please rate the current (last 2 weeks) severity of your insomnia problem(s):

1. Difficulty falling asleep
2. Difficulty staying asleep
3. Problem waking up too early
4. How satisfied/dissatisfied are you with your current sleep pattern?
5. How noticeable to others do you think your sleep problem is in terms of impairing the quality of your life?
6. How worried/distressed are you about your current sleep problem?
7. To what extent do you consider your sleep problem to interfere with your daily functioning (e.g., daytime fatigue, mood, ability to function at work or with daily chores, concentration, memory) currently?

A score is not a diagnosis. Discuss the result and your sleep history with a licensed clinician. A referral to Arizona Sleep Center does not require a particular score.

What treatment looks like in Arizona

A referral is optional. Patients can book on their own. Book an appointment.

1

We contact your patient

We call your patient and book the assessment.

2

Treatment begins

The first appointment runs 50 minutes and covers sleep history, what your patient has already tried, and their medication. Visits are weekly after that, with a daily sleep diary in between. Most courses run six to eight weeks, and the clinician adjusts the sleep schedule as they go.

3

We keep you informed

With your patient's consent, we send Insomnia Severity Index scores and treatment milestones as they happen.

Every appointment is over video with a clinician licensed in Arizona. We do not offer in-person visits. Your patient needs to be inside Arizona for the whole appointment.
