Sleep Disorders

 

Sleep Disorder Counselling Ottawa

 


Sleep disorders are common conditions that negatively affect the quality and/or amount of sleep. Sleep disorders can result in individuals receiving too much or too little sleep, poor quality of sleep, and sometimes strange or dangerous behaviours while sleeping. 


Insomnia is one of the most well-known sleep disorders; however, there are many other sleep disorders with many different symptoms.


Examples of other common sleep disorders: 

  • Sleep Apnea 
  • Sleep Walking/Talking 
  • Restless Leg Syndrome 
  • Sleep Paralysis
  • Narcolepsy


A psychologist will work to determine the best treatment for your sleep disorder and help identify and restructure the thoughts and behaviours that cause or contribute to unhealthy sleep issues and habits.
