Sleep Disorders encompass a range of problems related to sleep quality and sleep patterns. Common sleep issues such as insomnia, sleep apnea, and circadian rhythm disorders can negatively impact individuals' daily functioning and quality of life. Psychotherapy can be an effective approach for the treatment of sleep disorders. The therapist assesses the individual's sleep habits and lifestyle, attempting to identify the underlying causes of the sleep disorder. They provide education on sleep hygiene and teach strategies like stress management and relaxation techniques. Therapy aims to improve sleep habits and patterns, leading to better sleep quality and reduced sleep problems. Additionally, if there are other psychological issues underlying the sleep disorder, therapy contributes to addressing these issues as well.
