When your brain won't switch off at night, "just relax" isn't advice.

What we work with

Insomnia shows up differently for different people — difficulty falling asleep, waking through the night, or surfacing too early and never quite drifting back off. Underneath it there is usually a second pattern worth naming: a mind that won't switch off at bedtime, a low hum of anxiety about sleep itself, and the things people quietly start doing to cope — late nights to avoid the dread of trying, a drink to switch the brain off, lying awake running through tomorrow. Each of these makes sense on its own. Together, they are usually what keeps the cycle going.

We work with all of it — not just the hours you're awake, but the anxiety and the workarounds that have built up around them.

The Sleep Restoration Programme

For sleep difficulties specifically, we offer a focused four-session programme built for this problem, not adapted from a general one. It draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Insomnia, an evidence-informed approach that works on the patterns keeping poor sleep going rather than trying to force sleep to happen.

Across the four sessions, we build a clear picture of your sleep pattern and the habits and worries that keep it in place. Then comes the part most sleep advice skips: finding a steadier relationship with being awake at night, so a difficult night no longer has the same hold over the day that follows.

Four sessions. One clinician. A defined end point, not an open-ended commitment.

Why Eunoia

You work with Albie Mew-Davies, a BACP-registered therapist (MBACP 415049) who specialises in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. He practises clinically at the Priory Group in inpatient mental health and guest-lectures on ACT at Canterbury Christ Church University.

He is not a platform matching you to whoever's free. There is no algorithm and no rotating roster. When you book with Eunoia, you work with the same person from your first session to your last — which matters more with sleep than almost anything else, because so much of what helps is someone who remembers your specific pattern and builds on it, rather than starting from zero each time.

What to expect

It starts with a free fifteen-minute call — no preparation needed, nothing to commit to yet. Albie will want to understand your sleep difficulty in your own words: how long it's been going on, what it actually looks like night to night, and what else might be feeding it.

From there, a 60-minute initial assessment builds the fuller clinical picture and establishes whether the Sleep Restoration Programme or standard therapy sessions are the better fit for what's going on. No GP referral needed. Available online across the UK, or in person at our venues in Horsham or Wimbledon.
