Online Psychiatry & Therapy for Insomnia
When you’re not sleeping well at night, it can be hard to get through the day
How Do I Know if Psychiatry and Talk Therapy Is Right For Me?
It’s okay to reach out for support, even if you’re still sorting things out. If insomnia (falling or staying asleep) has been a struggle, you’re not alone. Talking with someone can help make things feel a little less heavy.
Psychiatry and talk therapy often work best together, helping you better understand what you’re feeling, where it’s coming from, and how to manage it in ways that feel doable. Some people find relief through therapy alone, like using simple tools to work through their thoughts.
For others, a combination of medication and therapy brings the most relief. Medication can play a helpful role in reducing the intensity of your symptoms, making it easier to get through the day. What matters most is finding what works for you and having support along the way. Here are a few ways we can make this happen:
Understanding what’s getting in the way of your sleep - Together, we’ll take a closer look at your sleep patterns, stress levels, and lifestyle habits to uncover what might be getting in the way of you falling or staying asleep.
Exploring other possible concurrent factors - We’ll help identify whether things like anxiety, chronic stress, or other health conditions could be playing a role in your insomnia.
Finding relaxation techniques that’ll work for you - Therapy can help you shift how your mind and body prepare for rest by using calming tools like breathing exercises or relaxation techniques.
What Can Insomnia Look Like?

Stressful situations and uncertain moments can elevate insomnia symptoms, which may show up in physical and psychological ways.

Delayed reactions to situations
Regularly waking up in the middle of the night
