Yes! To treat my insomnia, I found an therapist specializing in anxiety disorders, and we basically did a slow baby step exposure therapy protocol. I had a lol of rigid routines and safety behaviors around sleep, and doing a fast 4 week CBT program and letting go of them all at once felt like too much.
I feel treating insomnia with exposure therapy should be more common practice!
