Sleep-Related Disorders

At Mindwell Urgent Care, we specialize in helping individuals manage and overcome sleep-related disorders through personalized care from experienced psychiatrists and mental health providers. If you are lying awake at night, staring at the ceiling, feeling frustrated because you just can’t fall asleep, or you’re constantly exhausted during the day, struggling to get through work, family time, and everything else that demands your attention, we’re here to help—either in person or through our telehealth services.

Sleep disorders aren’t just about a few bad nights of sleep. They’re ongoing conditions that make it hard for you to get the rest your body and mind need. Common sleep disorders include:

• Insomnia – Difficulty falling or staying asleep, leaving you feeling tired and drained the next day.
• Sleep Apnea – Interrupted breathing during sleep, often causing loud snoring and a restless night.
• Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) – An uncomfortable urge to move your legs, especially while resting.
• Narcolepsy – Uncontrollable daytime sleepiness and sudden sleep episodes.
• Circadian Rhythm Disorders – A mismatch between your sleep-wake cycle and your body’s natural rhythm.

 
Sleep problems can come from a variety of causes, such as stress, mental health issues like anxiety or depression, physical health conditions, or even just bad habits that have built up over time. Whatever the cause, if you’ve been struggling with sleep for weeks or months, it’s important to get professional help.

Sleep is more than just a break from the demands of daily life. It’s essential for both your physical and mental health. When you don’t get enough sleep, or your sleep is of poor quality, it can have far-reaching effects on your well-being. If you or someone you love has been struggling with sleep, you might have already noticed some of these impacts. But understanding the full extent of how poor sleep can affect your health might motivate you to prioritize rest and seek help. Poor sleep has long-lasting effects, such as:

• Impaired Cognitive Functioning
• Increased Stress and Anxiety
• Mood Swings and Irritability
• Weakened Immune System
• Reduced Physical Performance
• Slower Recovery After Exercise

• Reduced Stamina
• Impact on Relationships
• Decreased Libido
• Increased Risk of Accidents
• Impaired Decision-Making and Judgment
• Increased Risk of Chronic Health Conditions (heart disease, diabetes, obesity)

You might be wondering, “What exactly is sleep therapy, and how can it help me?” Simply put, sleep therapy is designed to help you not just sleep better but also understand what’s affecting your sleep so you can make lasting changes. We use a range of approaches, including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) – This evidence-based therapy helps you change the thoughts and behaviors that are keeping you awake at night.
• Relaxation Techniques – Methods like mindfulness, meditation, and deep breathing exercises to help calm your mind and prepare your body for sleep.
• Sleep Hygiene Counseling – Practical tips for improving your sleep environment and establishing a consistent bedtime routine.
• Addressing Underlying Mental Health Conditions – We’ll also help you identify and treat any mental health concerns—such as anxiety or depression—that may be contributing to your sleep struggles.
