How a Sleep Psychologist Supports Recovery After Trauma-Induced Sleep Disturbances
Trauma can disrupt every aspect of a person’s life, but one of the most deeply felt and often overlooked effects is the disruption of sleep. Whether caused by a single traumatic event or ongoing stressful experiences, trauma often leads to sleep disturbances such as insomnia, nightmares, and restless nights. For many, these sleep problems become a vicious cycle, exacerbating emotional distress and making recovery feel even more daunting. A sleep psychologist plays a crucial role in helping individuals break this cycle and find restorative rest again. Understanding how these specialists support recovery can empower people to seek the help they need and regain a sense of safety and control in their lives.
