Se non dormi bene, non è “solo” stanchezza. È svegliarsi con la mente già in affanno, affrontare la giornata col pilota automatico e arrivare alla sera con la paura che la notte ricominci da capo. Ti aiuto a ritrovare un rapporto più sereno e affidabile con il sonno, integrando la CBT-I ( terapia più efficace per l’insonnia), mindfulness e ipnoterapia. La CBT-I offre una base scientifica solida; mindfulness e ipnoterapia accompagnano mente e corpo a rilassarsi con più facilità. Mi occupo di tutte le forme di insonnia: difficoltà ad addormentarsi, risvegli frequenti, risvegli precoci, sonno non ristoratore o una mente che corre proprio quando vorresti riposare. Le prime sessioni sono dedicate a comprendere davvero cosa sta succedendo: i tuoi ritmi, le abitudini, le emozioni e i pensieri ...
