Tired all day.Awake all night.
The light goes off. Your mind switches on.
You’ve tried the apps. The tea. The magnesium. The sleep podcast at 1am.
None of it worked, because none of it was about you.
How long did you sleep last night?
Not terrible. Not rested either. Most people I work with start right here.

They’re about what your mind does when nothing else needs its attention.
That can be learned. And unlearned.
Two weeks, on paper.
Before we change anything, you write down your nights. When you went to bed. When you fell asleep. When you woke up. Most people are surprised by what it shows.
Example diary. Not real data.
Six weeks. One plan. Yours.
Two weeks of sleep diary.
Before we change anything, we look at what’s really happening.
A first session of 90 minutes.
We go through your diary, your habits and what keeps you awake.
Six weekly sessions.
Small changes, tested one at a time. We adjust as we go.
A plan you keep.
Something you can come back to on a bad week, without me.
Based on CBT-I, the approach most sleep researchers recommend first for long-term insomnia.
Try this now.
At 3am your mind races, and your body follows. Slow breathing tells it you’re safe. Tap the moon and breathe with it, three times.
I know exactly what 4am feels like.
I spent eleven years on night shifts in Hamburg. I learned how sleep breaks, and how it comes back.
Today I coach from Marbella, in person and online. Certified in CBT-I.
Start small.
A first conversation.
Twenty minutes to talk about what’s going on and whether coaching fits.
A single session.
One focused hour on one problem.
The six-week reset.
Your diary, a first session, six weekly sessions and a plan you keep.

Do I need a diagnosis first?
No. If anything in your diary suggests a medical cause, such as sleep apnoea, I’ll tell you to see your doctor first.
I take sleep medication. Can I still do this?
Yes. Keep taking it as prescribed. Any change happens with your doctor, not with me.
Online or in person?
Both work. In person in Marbella, online anywhere in Europe.
Will I have to give up coffee?
Probably not. You may drink it earlier in the day.
Which languages?
English and German.
Sleep is not something you can force.
Sleep coaching for people who lie awake. In person in Marbella. Online across Europe. In English and German.
