Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia aims to improve sleep habits and behaviors. The cognitive part of CBT-I teaches you to recognize and change beliefs that affect your ability to sleep. For instance, this may include learning how to control or eliminate negative thoughts and worries that keep you awake. The behavioral part of CBT-I helps you develop good sleep habits and avoid behaviors that keep you from sleeping well.

The three main variants of cognitive behavior therapy are Ellis's rational emotive therapy (RET), Meichenbaum's self instructional training (SET), and Beck's cognitive therapy. All these therapies are broadly similar and all attempt to enable cognitive change, now frequently called cognitive restructuring.

OBS

Le cognitivisme se présentait comme une nouvelle révolution capable d'élargir des thérapies comportementales, voire pour certains de faire sortir la psychologie de la "longue et ennuyeuse nuit du behaviorisme" (Bunge, 1980).
