| 17 year old DD had a sleep study for insomnia and night waking and they recommended CBT-I. I am hoping to do it virtually, and covered by insurance if possible. Does anyone know how to find this? |

I don't know but I recently listened to this podcast about CBT-I and it was so helpful and they mentioned some list that might be linked on this page too

| My son also struggled with insomnia. He used the CBT-I Coach app, on his counselor’s recommendation, because we could not find a provider. It was very helpful. |
| If you live in DC, Maryland or Virginia, you can see any psychologist virtually who is licensed via Psypact - so you are not limited to your state. (This is only for psychologists, not therapists with other licensures.) |
| My 21yo college daughter is also very much struggling with insomnia and disordered sleep. Where did your daughter do her sleep study? |
I went to a CBTI provider and the app was more helpful than the provider. Essentially they just limited the hours I could sleep. I did not comply and am a CBTI dropout as I found myself so tired driving my kids around it didn't feel safe. |
| Neurofeedback worked wonders for my son’s insomnia. If CBTI doesn’t work, you may look into neuro. |
