About The Better Sleep Clinic:
NZ's Insomnia & Sleep Specialist Sleep Psychologists

Welcome to The Better Sleep Clinic, New Zealand's dedicated online sleep clinic focused on behavioural sleep medicine.

If you're struggling with insomnia or other challenging sleep disorders, such as circadian rhythm sleep disorders such as delayed sleep phase, advanced sleep phase, shift work disorder, parasomnias including nightmare disorder and co-occurring mental health conditions, you've come to the right place.

We provide expert, evidence-based assessment and treatment delivered by sleep therapists and registered psychologists to clients NZ wide and around the world.

Our Mission: Effective, Science-Backed Sleep Solutions

Our core mission is to provide the most effective, evidence-based sleep therapy NZ residents and international patients can access. We specialise in full multi-component Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), recognised as the gold-standard, first-line treatment for chronic insomnia.

Unlike clinics that are focused on selling CPAP machines and devices for sleep apnoea, and often lack experience in in-depth, one-to-one treatment over multiple sessions, our psychologists specializing in insomnia NZ provide multi-component CBT-I and sleep therapies that provide comprehensive, personalised, close support to clients.

Furthermore, our expertise as psychologists allows us to effectively assess and treat co-morbid mental health conditions, such as anxiety or PTSD, that often accompany sleep problems, utilising therapies like EMDR and other CBT treatments. We also offer structured support for sleep medication tapering.

We believe in treating the whole person, understanding the intricate links between sleep, mental health, physical well-being, and daily performance.
