Clinician Resources
If you are a clinician interested in treating sleep problems, below are some free resources that can be helpful.
Handouts for Clients
Insomnia Severity Index (like the PHQ-9 but for insomnia)
Shifting Circadian Rhythms with Light and Melatonin
Countermeasures for Fatigue (aka “Energizers”)
Mental Health Technology
I use the CAT-MH for automated psychological assessment. The CAT-MH is a personalized mental health assessment that adapts questions based on your responses, similar to a clinician interview. This efficient tool assesses various mental health conditions in 10-15 minutes, offering accuracy comparable to longer clinical evaluations and providing detailed symptom severity measurements for better healthcare provider understanding. Learn more here.
I use BluePrint AI for automated note taking (if clients agree). Blueprint is an AI-assisted tool that helps mental health clinicians quickly generate progress notes and treatment plans from recorded sessions. It supports various note types and allows for customization, saving therapists time and improving accuracy in documentation. With Blueprint, notes and treatment plans are generated in 30 seconds or less. Learn more here.
I use Claude for most of my AI needs, including making handouts for clients and translating them into relevant languages.
If you are a clinician interested in any of these digital services, please reach out! I have no conflicts of interest for Blueprint or Claude, but I do have a working relationship with the company behind the CAT-MH.
