Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia: An Effective and Underutilized Treatment for Insomnia
Overview
This paper discusses the prevalence of sleep difficulties and positions cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-i) as a highly effective, nonpharmacological treatment that offers long-term benefits without side effects. It outlines the five key components of CBT-i and notes that the therapy is underutilized due to a shortage of trained practitioners and patient preference for medication. The resource suggests that healthcare providers can help address this gap by educating patients about CBT-i as a first-line option.
