Our London practice has a variety of ways to help you get the sleep you need

Insomnia and chronic sleeping disorders aren’t to be taken lightly. It’s all too easy for most people to take the simple act of falling asleep for granted. But if you are experiencing a lack of sleep, struggle to get the rest you need or can’t stop your mind from racing at night, it can quickly build up to heavy fatigue and mental stress that can really wear you down. With over one third of people in the UK suffering from insomnia and sleep disorders at some point in their life, it’s not as uncommon as you would have thought.

Here at The Apex Practice we are well versed in helping insomnia sufferers get the sleep and rest that is so important to functioning normally from day to day. Our thorough and in-depth assessments help us get a really defined and clear picture of all the causes of your insomnia.

We then work with you in a structured and supportive way to help you break free from the cycle of insomnia and get the quality sleep that you need to have a normal, healthy and balanced lifestyle.

Could it be physical?

It is also worth noting that insomnia can also be caused by physical conditions and lifestyle choices. These include heart disease, sleep apnea, chronic pain, urinary tract issues, asthma, Alzheimer’s, arthritis, certain medication, and alcohol/drug misuse. If you suspect your insomnia is due to a physical issue or want to rule it out before visiting us, please speak to your doctor.

“I was referred to Raymond by a Professor of Neurology who was treating me for chronic fatigue and recognised that I needed help with anxiety. Raymond also helped me overcome PTSD using EMDR which was genuinely life-changing - forgive the cliché. He has been equally brilliant at helping me navigate the shifted dynamics of my relationship with my father after the death of my mother. His approach is gentle, but persistent, and I’m so grateful to him for persevering with my stubborn streak. Without my being aware, he’s taught me how to manage my ‘autonomic' emotional responses which makes for a much happier existence.”
