LEARN CBT-I & EVIDENCE-BASED INSOMNIA TREATMENT FROM A LICENSED CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST
Colleen E. Carney, Ph.D: Licensed Psychologist & Researcher
Dr. Carney's clinical and research work has centered on understanding precisely why chronic insomnia persists despite standard advice, and what it actually takes to move it. She has spent her career studying the mechanisms that maintain insomnia disorder, including sleep effort, conditioned arousal, and the failure of conventional sleep recommendations to address what is actually driving the problem.
What she brings to this Webinar is grounded in that same clinical precision. She gives clinicians the structured tools to assess sleep problems outside a sleep disorder center, determine CBT-I eligibility, use sleep logs to develop accurate time-in-bed schedules, and integrate stimulus control in ways that produce lasting behavioral change.

Frequently Asked Questions
I treat clients with insomnia regularly but was never trained in CBT-I. Is this Webinar appropriate for me?
Yes. This Webinar is built for clinicians who are already encountering chronic insomnia on their caseload & want a structured framework that makes sleep effort, CBT-I eligibility, & time-in-bed scheduling clinically readable & immediately actionable.
I was never formally trained in sleep disorders in graduate school. Will this be too advanced?
No. This Webinar is designed for the intermediate clinician who carries clients with sleep complaints & wants a grounded, practical protocol for treating chronic insomnia beyond the sleep hygiene advice standard training provided.
I already use CBT with my clients. Will this conflict with what I already do?
No. Dr. Carney teaches how to apply CBT-I specifically to the sleep effort mechanism & the behavioral patterns maintaining chronic insomnia. The protocol works alongside existing approaches & adds a structured sleep-specific layer to your current clinical work.
My clients keep following every sleep recommendation & still cannot sleep. Will this address that?
Yes. A core focus of this Webinar is helping clinicians identify sleep effort as the maintaining mechanism & replace generic sleep hygiene advice with the CBT-I protocol that actually addresses why the standard recommendations are not working.
