How Late-Night Therapy Can Help with Overcoming Nighttime Emotional Overwhelm

Updated: Apr 7


Sometimes, emotions feel heavier at night. The quiet of the evening, combined with a busy mind, can cause a sense of emotional overwhelm. If you find that your emotions often feel overwhelming when the sun sets, late-night therapy could be the solution you need to process and manage these feelings.


1. Safe Space to Express Late-Night Emotions

At night, when you're alone with your thoughts, emotions like sadness, loneliness, or anxiety can feel more intense. Late-night therapy offers a space where you can express and process these emotions with a therapist who is there to listen and help guide you through them, offering comfort and coping strategies.


2. Strategies for Managing Emotional Overload

Late-night therapy can help you develop strategies for managing emotional overwhelm that can arise after dark. Through techniques like grounding exercises, mindfulness practices, and emotion regulation strategies, you can gain control over your emotions and reduce their intensity.


3. Managing Racing Thoughts before Bed

Racing thoughts and overwhelming feelings can make it difficult to sleep. Late-night therapy helps you address these thoughts in real-time, providing tools to calm your mind before you head to bed. Working with a therapist can help you identify and redirect these thoughts, helping you sleep more peacefully.


Late-night therapy provides the perfect space to address emotional overwhelm that may arise late in the evening. It offers both a supportive outlet for processing emotions and practical tools to manage overwhelming feelings, allowing you to rest easier and wake up more centered.

Insurance & Fees

 

When scheduling an appointment, we will verify your insurance benefits and let you know what they are including any co-pays, co-insurance, deductibles, required pre-authorization, etc. We can answer any questions you have regarding your insurance benefits. That being said, sometimes we do receive incorrect information from insurance companies, which is out of our control. It is extremely important to note that clients are ultimately responsible for knowing their benefits and settling balances based on how claims are processed. Clients are always advised to call/email their insurance companies to find out what their benefits are and to record a reference number in case there is any confusion in the future. We are not insurance experts!

​

Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. 

Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions.

​

  • Do I have mental health benefits?

  • What is my deductible and has it been met?

  • How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?

  • What is the coverage amount per therapy session?

  • Is approval, authorization or a referral required from my primary care physician?

  • Do I have mental health telehealth benefits? Is mental health telehealth benefits covered under my insurance?

​

Remember, we are here for you, however, all clients are ultimately responsible for payment in full. I can provide you with the necessary documentation to seek reimbursement from your insurance company if we are out-of-network.
