Watch this breakthrough Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) Certificate Course to develop core competencies and master the art of applying CBT-I to a variety of clinical populations!

You’ll get effective clinical techniques from two of today’s leading CBT-I treatment innovators, Colleen E. Carney, Ph.D. and Meg Danforth, Ph.D., who will share their insight and techniques. Join in for this revolutionary course as both reveal the latest advances in CBT-I to get the skills you need to succeed.

You will be able to utilize concrete strategies that will provide greater healing for your clients who suffer from:

• Anxiety
• Trauma
• TBI
• Nightmares
• Depression
• Chronic pain
• Sleep apnea

Discover evidence-based strategies to help your clients increase energy during the day, sleep more deeply, and re-initiate sleep after hot flashes, panic attacks or nightmares. The strategies that you will add to your toolbox can be easily integrated into existing treatment for depression, chronic pain, trauma and anxiety.

Through case studies, interactive discussions, examples of sleep logs, and reproducible handouts, you will take away practical CBT-I strategies to use immediately with any client. Finish this certificate course armed with tools you can use in your very next session.

1. Select assessment tools that screen for other sleep disorders and identify insomnia treatment targets as it relates to case conceptualization.
2. Teach clients about the science of sleep and the causes of chronic insomnia for purposes of client psychoeducation.
3. Ascertain key perpetuating factors for chronic insomnia to understand the etiology of chronic insomnia.
4. Collaboratively design a sleep schedule with clients using a sleep diary to improve client’s sleep efficiency and daytime functioning.
5. Combine stimulus control and sleep restriction therapy to address the three major causes of chronic insomnia.
6. Select counter-arousal strategies to target hyper arousal in clients.
7. Modify a client’s distorted beliefs about sleep using cognitive therapy techniques to improve adherence and decrease sleep related anxiety.
8. Explore three models of CBT-I delivery and implementation issues for different practice settings.
9. Select CBT-I treatment components to target perpetuating factors in clients with comorbid insomnia.
10. Use cognitive and behavioral strategies to improve adherence with depressed clients.
11. Modify treatment recommendations for clients who have symptoms of high sleep anxiety.
12. Anticipate and resolve common treatment challenges in clients with PTSD such as sleep avoidance, fear of loss of vigilance and nightmare awakenings.
13. Apply CBT-I techniques to clients with mild traumatic brain injury.
14. Develop strategies to re-associate bed with sleep in clients with chronic pain.
15. Combine CBT-I with a guided hypnotic taper to reduce rebound insomnia and psychological dependence in clients who wish to decrease or discontinue their use of sleep medication.
16. Implement clinical treatment strategies to improve CPAP adherence in clients with co occurring obstructive sleep apnea.
17. Combine behavioral interventions with evidence-based strategies, such as light therapy and strategically-timed melatonin, to “reset the clock” in clients with circadian rhythm sleep disorders.
18. Use imagery rehearsal therapy to improve frequency and intensity of recurrent nightmares in clients with or without PTSD.
19. Practice using advanced case formulation techniques to accurately select combination and order of CBT-I components.
