What we treat

Help with sleep difficulties

Sleep sits underneath almost everything else in psychiatry. Treat it and other symptoms often loosen; leave it and they tend not to.

What it can look like

  • Lying awake unable to switch your mind off
  • Waking through the night, or far too early
  • Sleeping long hours and still waking exhausted
  • Dreading bedtime because of how it usually goes
  • Relying on alcohol, cannabis or over-the-counter aids to get to sleep
  • Daytime exhaustion, irritability and poor concentration

You do not need to recognise all of these, and recognising them is not a diagnosis. That is what the evaluation is for.

How we approach it

Poor sleep is usually a symptom rather than a standalone problem — anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, medication timing and physical health all disturb it. The evaluation works out which of those is driving it, because the treatment follows the cause.

Sometimes the answer is adjusting the timing of medication you already take. Sometimes it is treating what is keeping you awake. Sedatives are not a first resort, and where sleep points to a condition better assessed by a sleep study, we will tell you.
