Who ADHD Sleep Reset is designed for

ADHD Sleep Reset is an eight-week, therapist-led program for insomnia, delayed sleep patterns and bedtime procrastination. It adapts CBT-I for barriers such as time blindness, hyperfocus and difficulty transitioning out of the evening. A formal ADHD diagnosis is not required.

Group care combines eight live 75-minute sessions with a maximum of 15 participants, sleep diaries, weekly experiments, regulation tools and clinical review. The program includes a personalized Sleep-Wellness Report and a written sleep manual.

Individual sleep therapy is a separate option, usually organized around four to eight sessions. The clinician confirms the appropriate plan rather than assuming every person needs the same duration.

Cohort

Included

STG Online Clinic

Use supporting self-paced resources for attention, routine design, procrastination and emotional regulation.

Eight weeks, live and practical

What treatment includes

Each week tests a small change, reviews the data and builds a personal sleep system.

Clinical

ADHD-adapted CBT-I

Use stimulus control, sleep scheduling and cognitive methods in a way that accounts for ADHD barriers.

Regulation

Downshift the nervous system

Add sensory and emotional regulation methods for the brain that experiences quiet as activation rather than calm.

Personal

Your own sleep manual

Finish with a written explanation of the pattern, leverage points, warning signs and the plan that worked.

The sleep pattern

Understand your sleep pattern

The program treats the mechanisms that maintain the wired-at-night, exhausted-in-the-morning loop.

Timing

Delayed sleep and weak time cues

Bedtime drifts because internal time signals are unreliable and the evening finally feels self-directed.

Activation

A brain that wakes up at night

Hyperfocus, unfinished tasks, worry and reward-seeking make disengagement harder precisely when demands become quiet.

Compensation

Daytime patches disrupt the next night

Caffeine, naps, snooze cycles and inconsistent wake times reduce immediate distress while keeping the rhythm unstable.

The loop we break

How the sleep cycle keeps repeating

The intervention changes one link at a time rather than demanding a perfect overnight routine.

01

Sleep starts late

Hyperfocus, avoidance or revenge bedtime delay pushes the sleep window later.

02

Morning becomes emergency mode

Snoozing, rushing and missed light exposure weaken the next night’s sleep drive.

03

The day is patched

Caffeine, naps and reduced activity help short-term functioning but fragment sleep pressure.

04

The evening becomes the only relief

The cycle repeats because nighttime is again the first quiet, rewarding part of the day.

Read 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → back to 1. The short-term solution can leave less capacity for the next task. This is one possible pattern, not everyone’s experience.

Preparing for sleep treatment

Be ready to describe your usual sleep and wake pattern, work schedule, evening routines and what makes a change difficult. The clinician explains any sleep diary or other information needed; you do not need to design your own sleep schedule before the appointment.

Mention shift work, caregiving demands, current medication and concerns such as possible sleep apnea or restless legs. Medical assessment may be needed before or alongside behavioural treatment, and medication decisions remain with the prescriber.

Review the group fee, deposit questions and booking details above. Individual sleep therapy has separate fees and scheduling, agreed before booking.
