+ MORE INSURANCE PROVIDERS
A sleep therapist treats insomnia with behavioral therapy rather than medication. At the RISE Sleep Clinic that therapist is a licensed clinical psychologist, and the treatment is CBT-I — Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, which the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends as first-line treatment for chronic insomnia, ahead of sleeping pills. Sessions run weekly over secure video, so West Palm Beach residents can start without a referral and without waiting on a sleep-lab appointment.
RISE bills major insurance plans directly, including Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medicare, and UnitedHealthcare; network status, benefits and out-of-pocket costs are verified with your plan before treatment begins.

Who this treatment is for
You may be a good fit for the RISE Sleep Clinic if you:

- Wake up during the night and can’t get back to sleep
- Wake earlier than you want

How the RISE app supports your care
Some patients choose to use the RISE app alongside therapy to better understand their sleep patterns and stay engaged between sessions. The app is included as part of your treatment at the RISE Sleep Clinic, at no additional cost.
The app can help you:
- Track sleep consistency and timing
- Understand circadian rhythm patterns
- Reinforce strategies from therapy
- See progress over time
Your psychologist will help you decide how — or whether — the app fits into your treatment. Therapy always comes first.
“I feel like I finally understand the way sleep works and more importantly, how to make it work for me.”
What to expect from treatment
- Weekly virtual CBT-I sessions with a licensed sleep therapist
- A structured, time-limited course of care (not open-ended therapy)

No guesswork. No trial-and-error sleep hacks.

What makes West Palm Beach challenging for sleep?
West Palm Beach is the seat of Palm Beach County, a city of 128,000 where healthcare, financial services, and tourism drive the economy. The wealth of nearby Palm Beach island creates a service economy alongside the corporate offices, and the tropical climate means heat and humidity are year-round factors, not seasonal inconveniences.
- Healthcare facilities running 24/7: Good Samaritan Medical Center, St. Mary's Medical Center, and Palm Beach Children's Hospital all operate in the area. The combined healthcare workforce rotates through night shifts, weekend shifts, and on-call schedules year-round. For nurses and clinical staff, the irregular hours compound the heat-related sleep disruption that comes with living in South Florida.
- Financial services and growing aerospace sector: West Palm Beach has attracted financial services firms and aerospace companies looking for Florida's tax advantages. The professional workforce carries deadline pressure and cognitive load, while the service-economy workers who support the tourism and hospitality sector work late hours and weekends. Both patterns create insomnia risk.
- Tropical heat from June through September: West Palm Beach temperatures reach the low 90s in summer with oppressive humidity. The heat doesn't meaningfully break at night, and from June through September, bedroom temperatures stay elevated unless AC runs continuously. For the 10.9 percent of Floridians without insurance, even managing the utility bill to keep the bedroom cool enough to sleep becomes a financial stress.
Palm Beach Health Network operates multiple hospitals in the county. Florida's uninsured rate is approximately 10.9 percent, with about 4.7 million Floridians on ACA marketplace plans. Telehealth CBT-I fits the South Florida lifestyle: no fighting traffic on I-95 to get to an appointment. Most insurance plans cover it, and sessions typically run 6-8 weeks.
