Insomnia is a distressing difficulty in falling asleep, staying asleep, waking early or a combination of these symptoms, where there is also a perception of insufficient sleep. Research has shown that CBT group treatment of insomnia is significantly effective in treatment outcomes (improved sleep and mood), reduced treatment time and resources.
