For the first time, I had a safe place to talk about why I wasn't sleeping and someone who could show me exactly how to fix it. By improving my sleep, positive changes in the rest of my life just started stacking up.

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
  • Feel anxious or frustrated about sleep

Why virtual CBT-I works

Virtual CBT-I delivers the same evidence-based insomnia treatment as in-person care — with fewer barriers.

  • Comparable outcomes to in-person treatment
  • No commuting or waiting rooms
  • Easier scheduling that fits real life
  • Access to licensed sleep experts who specialize in insomnia
  • Practice sleep strategies in your own bedroom environment
  • Secure, HIPAA-compliant video sessions

You get expert insomnia treatment without disrupting your life.

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.

Nafeesa, 45

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)
  • Clear guidance and adjustments between sessions based on your sleep patterns
  • Support when setbacks happen — including stress, travel, or schedule changes
  • Practical tools and skills you can continue using long after treatment ends

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

What makes Nashua challenging for sleep?

Nashua is New Hampshire's second-largest city and the southern anchor of the Route 3 tech and defense corridor. BAE Systems and Teradyne are headquartered here, the median household income is $92,457, and the combination of high-stakes technical work and New England winters creates a specific kind of sleep problem.

  • BAE Systems and defense industry demands: BAE Systems is one of Nashua's largest employers, and the broader defense and high-tech sector drives the local economy. Classified programs, production deadlines, and security-cleared facilities create work environments where stress is constant and the mental load doesn't power down at 6pm. Defense workers report some of the highest rates of work-related insomnia in any industry.
  • Southern New Hampshire Medical Center with 2,174 employees: Southern New Hampshire Medical Center and St. Joseph Hospital are the city's second and third largest employers, with a combined workforce of nearly 4,000. Both hospitals operate emergency and inpatient services around the clock, and the nursing and support staff on rotating schedules face the same circadian disruption that plagues hospital workers everywhere.
  • Sub-zero winter lows and 55 inches of annual snow: Nashua averages 8.7 days per year below zero degrees Fahrenheit and 55 inches of snow. The short winter daylight limits morning light exposure, which delays circadian timing and makes it harder to fall asleep at a reasonable hour. By February, a lot of Nashua residents have drifted into a delayed sleep pattern without realizing it.

New Hampshire's uninsured rate is about 4.7%, and 70,337 Granite Staters selected marketplace plans for 2025, with the vast majority receiving premium tax credits. Telehealth CBT-I makes sense in a state where winter weather can cancel any in-person appointment. Most insurance plans cover it, and sessions typically run 6-8 weeks.
