Sleep Coaching by Dr Kat

Sleeping well is a basic human right.

And yet, sometimes it can be a struggle.  

Hello, I’m Dr Kat. I help women and men who are struggling to sleep do that one thing they really want to do: sleep well again.  

Because not sleeping well simply takes the joy out of your day.

Sure, you still do all the things you have to do, but there’s something missing. Maybe you feel you’re letting others and yourself down. That’s a painful feeling. One that can make you feel lonely too.

I can help you get the sleep you need by taking a scientific, holistic and collaborative approach to sleep problems and insomnia. So you recover the energy and mental space you desire to enjoy your life to its fullest. 

Remember how deeply and well you slept as a child? I can’t make you young again, but I believe that together we can get some of that calm feeling back.”

Dr. Kat

I believe that letting go of ‘sleep rules’ leads to sleeping well again.

Do you blame yourself for not sleeping? Do you tell yourself in order to sleep you have to do the right things and do them perfectly? May I ask, how is this working for you?

What if, instead of focusing on “don’ts” or instilling harsh and controlling rules, together we craft a Personalised Sleep Plan to meet your specific needs? And learn to listen a little less to that critical inner voice?  

If you’re willing to put the work in, it often only takes a few sessions to set you on the path to better sleep habits. We’ll meet on video chat, and work together to develop the skills you need to get the rest you want.

10 things you can do to support your sleep!(Just pick 1 & you’ll be supporting your overall wellbeing!)I’m a Sleep Therapist and I’m not going to preach that you need to be doing all of these for you to be able to sleep well, but our relationships with sleep are multifaceted and depend on many many elements of our lifestyles, predispositions and choices.So, where you can, make choices which support your sleep, why not do it!(You know the benefits of quality sleep - and if you don’t, you absolutely need to explore my other posts!)1. Watch your coffee timesTry to stop consuming caffeine after midday. Coffee can linger in your system for 6–8 hours, so an afternoon cup might be keeping you awake later than you think.2. BluelightThere are two things here: Maximise your exposure in the morning and limit it in the evenings. Blue light at the wrong time can play havoc with your circadian rhythm, confusing your body’s natural sleep–wake cues.3. Morning routineTry to keep one you can realistically stick to and that you enjoy! Consistent wake times help regulate your body clock and support your energy through the day.4. Evening routineConsistency is key. Explore how you could make your morning and evening routines complement each other. Calming, predictable evening habits help your body-mind to wind down and understand that sleep is on its way.5. AcceptanceThis is a big one for me. Sometimes we struggle to let go of being awake and the most healthy and helpful thing we can do is accept it, not fight it. Fighting it only makes things worse; gentleness helps you drift off to sleep more easily.6. Bedroom environmentWhat’s your sleep space like? Is it chaotic or calm? Small changes like darker curtains, tidying clutter, or a softer lamp can make a world of difference.7. Regular movement throughout the dayRegular movement throughout the day tires you out so you’re physically ready for sleep but also helps your internal body clocks to stay regulated - while you’re moving your body knows it’s not time for sleep, and when you slow down, it’s clear that it is nearing time for sleep.✨Continued in the comments… ...
