Your starting point for better sleep

Prior to the intake, you completed several questionnaires and kept a sleep diary for at least a week. These help to gain insight into the severity of your sleep problem and where the bottlenecks lie. We will look for any potential medical causes. We set clear goals regarding what you want to achieve with the coaching. Next, we conduct a baseline assessment: where do you stand now?

Sleep starts with your self-image

We look at your sleep history, sleep hygiene, sleep routines, lifestyle, and personality. They clarify what kind of sleeper you are (or think you are). Sometimes, small adjustments to your circadian rhythm, such as more relaxation and physical activity during the day, less coffee and alcohol, and a different approach to your diet, can already make a big difference.

Grip on insomnia

You’ll gain insight into how insomnia develops and why it sometimes persists. This provides both direction and confidence: poor sleep is not inevitable. Together, we explore your triggers and maintaining factors, so you understand what’s happening beneath the surface and how to break the vicious cycle for lasting, restorative sleep.

Uncovering sleep disruptors

We slowly get to the core: which 'sticky' thoughts, stressors, and emotional burden are disrupting your sleep? By learning to recognize and understand them better and sooner, and gradually making them less emotionally charged, we create more space for rest and relaxation.

Breaking the patterns

Now that we better understand what's hindering your sleep, we'll gradually work to break these unwanted patterns. This awareness is the first step toward change. It creates space for recovery, and you'll gain more confidence in your natural ability to sleep.

A new sleep routine

Whether it is about calming your mind and body before bed or sleeping through the night better, we find the methods that best soothe your body and mind. In this way, we build upon your new sleep routine, which starts during the day and pays off at night.

From struggle to surrender

We'll gradually break the negative association you have with "having to sleep." You'll learn to lie awake without experiencing panic and develop confidence in your own ability to sleep. Positive changes will be reinforced as we continue to work on what's not working yet.

Your personal relapse plan

We review your growth using a new measurement. You learn to recognize warning signs in time, and we create a plan to prevent you from falling back into old patterns. You face the future with a sleep plan and practical tools tailored to your life situation.

Moving forward sustainably

In the follow-up session, we'll discuss how your sleep has been going. This usually takes place a few months after the coaching process. We'll discuss what's going well, what's challenging, and how you're coping. We'll adjust your personal sleep plan as needed and see if anything else needs to be implemented.
