Who this treatment is for
You may be a good fit for the RISE Sleep Clinic if you:
- Take a long time to fall asleep
- Wake up during the night and can’t get back to sleep
- Wake earlier than you want
- Feel anxious or frustrated about sleep

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)
- 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 Minot challenging for sleep?
In Minot, December delivers only about 8 hours and 20 minutes of daylight, and the metro's two largest employers, Minot Air Force Base and Trinity Health, both run around-the-clock schedules. That combination puts a lot of local sleep under pressure.
- Winter darkness and cold: From roughly November through February, short photoperiods, heavy cloud cover, and January highs near 18°F keep people indoors and out of morning light, the main signal that anchors the body clock. Circadian drift and low mood in this stretch commonly show up as trouble falling or staying asleep.
- Strategic-alert shift work at Minot AFB: The base, 13 miles north on US-83, runs the 5th Bomb Wing (B-52s) and 91st Missile Wing (Minuteman III ICBMs) with about 5,470 military and 722 civilian personnel. Missileers on multi-day alert tours, aircrew, and security forces work nights and rotating shifts that repeatedly reset their sleep windows.
- Healthcare and energy shift density: Trinity Health is the region's dominant employer and runs 24/7 nursing and clinical shifts, while Bakken-region energy work (Hess, Enbridge, and contractors) often means rotational schedules. Rotating and night shifts are among the strongest drivers of chronic insomnia.
- Thin local specialty access: When CHI St. Alexius Health ended its Minot primary care, lab, and radiology services in November 2025 and moved staff to Bismarck, sleep care concentrated at essentially one accredited hospital lab (Trinity's), and dedicated CBT-I providers stayed scarce. Non-drug insomnia treatment often meant a waitlist or a drive south.
That access gap is exactly what telehealth closes. Because North Dakota is a PSYPACT state, the Rise Sleep Clinic pairs Minot residents with licensed sleep psychologists for one-on-one, clinician-led CBT-I over video, in-network with major insurers, without the local waitlist or a winter commute across town or down to Bismarck.
