Ashleigh Jewett, LCSW, received her Masters of Social Work from Baylor University. She has also received additional training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) and specializes in helping clients overcome insomnia. During the initial sessions, clients will dive into the issues they are experiencing and create a treatment plan together. Most clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter. Ashleigh enjoys helping clients from various walks of life.
Ashleigh's approach to therapy:
I understand that every single person has been molded and formed by their environments around them. In order for effective change to take place, therapy must be a safe and welcoming place in order for you to feel comfortable learning and discovering which route to take in your self-discovery journey. I prefer to be the passenger while you are in the driver’s seat telling me the route you want to take, and me helping you navigate the way to get there. I can’t promise that the journey will always be rainbows and sunshine, and there will be tough truths and strategies that seem hard to implement, but the destination will be one that you have longed for and are ready to receive.

The first appointment lasts about 50 minutes and covers your sleep history, daily schedule and previous treatments. If CBT-I is suitable, you keep a daily sleep diary that takes around two minutes each morning. Your clinician uses it to plan your bedtime and wake time and adjust your time in bed.
A course usually includes six to eight weekly sessions. Many patients notice improvement in the first few weeks. Read about the process on How It Works.
Sleep apnea and insomnia often occur together. Our clinicians treat insomnia and coordinate any needed referral to partners who treat apnea.
