Therapy for Sleep Issues and Insomnia in NYC
You Don’t Have to Spend Another Night Wide Awake
Tossing and turning. Watching the hours tick by. Feeling your body exhausted but your mind unwilling to rest. Living with sleep issues or insomnia can feel like a battle you fight every single night—and one that leaves you drained, anxious, and overwhelmed during the day.
If this feels familiar, you’re not alone. And it’s not your fault. Sleep is essential for emotional balance, physical health, and overall well-being. When sleep feels impossible, life itself feels heavier.
At Heart Mind Soul Practice, we specialize in helping New Yorkers find rest again. With therapy for sleep issues and insomnia, you’ll have support to understand what’s keeping you awake and tools to create real, lasting change.
This is a safe space for healing, and your journey toward restful nights can begin today.
What Are Sleep Issues and Insomnia?
Understanding the Silent Struggle That Affects Millions
Sleep problems are more than just being tired—they’re complex mind-body challenges that impact nearly every area of your life. Insomnia, the most common sleep disorder, can include:
Trouble falling asleep at night
Waking up in the middle of the night and struggling to return to sleep
Waking too early and not feeling rested
Feeling fatigued or unfocused during the day despite time in bed
Sleep issues can be short-term (triggered by stress or life changes) or long-term (chronic insomnia that lasts months or years). Left unaddressed, poor sleep can contribute to depression, anxiety, weakened immunity, and reduced quality of life.
The good news? Healing is possible. Therapy can help you identify and resolve the root causes of your sleep struggles—so rest becomes natural again.

How Therapy for Sleep Issues Also Supports Depression
Signs That It’s Time to Get Help
Sleep struggles don’t exist in isolation—they often connect to deeper emotional challenges. Many people who face chronic insomnia also experience anxiety, stress, or even symptoms of depression.
In fact, untreated sleep problems can worsen mood disorders, while depression itself can make it harder to rest.
That’s why at Heart Mind Soul Practice, our approach may overlap with therapy for depression, helping you address not only the restless nights but also the emotional weight that makes sleep harder to find. Healing both areas together brings lasting relief.
If sleep feels like a struggle instead of a source of rest, it may be time to seek support.
Here are signs therapy may help:
You regularly feel exhausted, groggy, or irritable during the day
Stress, anxiety, or racing thoughts keep you awake at night
You dread bedtime because you expect not to sleep
You rely on caffeine, alcohol, or sleep aids to get through the day
You experience frequent nightmares or restless nights
Even after a full night in bed, you don’t feel rested
If sleep is stealing your peace, therapy can help you restore balance and reclaim the energy you need for life.
