Description

How many of your clients have sleep issues?

Or maybe the real question is how many of your clients don’t?

Where we used to think mental health problems caused insomnia, we now know that the relationship is more circular than casual. Risky and addictive, drugs aren’t the answer. But without addressing sleep issues, and intervening in this vicious cycle, your treatment plans for mental health issues will likely be less effective and yield less successful outcomes.

You CAN help your clients improve their sleep and make your treatment of mental health issues more effective than ever before…and you don’t need to be a sleep expert to do it!

Whether you work with anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar or any other disorders, this recording will give you the sleep assessment tools and treatment techniques you need to guide clients out of their sleep deprived world so you can improve clinical outcomes.

Purchase this recording and discover how you can:

Naturally improve sleep in clients without the use of addictive medication
Identify sleep disorders and differentiate them from mental health symptoms
Improve sleep for clients of all ages – from kids to adults
Snap clients out of sleep-depriving habits with behavior changing exercises

Add a new tool to your toolbox to bring greater healing to your clients through the power of sleep!
