Lissa Coffey here again, hosting this episode of the Catching Zzz’s podcast! This week, I am joined once again by Emma Ekum, a Marriage and Family Therapist from Los Angeles.
During this episode, we’re diving into how cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help tackle insomnia.
Emma breaks down the clinical definition of insomnia, the ways CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I) differs from standard CBT, and why CBT-I is often more effective long-term than using sleep medications.
We also explore the importance of sleep hygiene, how changing our routines and beliefs around sleep makes a big difference, and practical strategies for getting your sleep back on track—without resorting to medication.
Whether you’re struggling with sleep yourself or just want to optimize your nightly routine, this episode is packed with science-backed tips, relatable stories, and simple strategies to help you catch those much-needed Z’s.
