Online psychologist for Hypersomnia
Please note: our sessions are held in Italian only.
Hypersomnia is excessive daytime sleepiness or the need to sleep much more than normal (over 9-10 hours) without feeling rested. It can hide depression, apathy, or sleep problems: therapy helps to investigate and manage the causes.
Signs not to ignore
- Needing many hours of sleep with non-restorative sleep
- Difficulty waking up and 'grogginess' upon awakening
- Daytime sleep episodes despite having rested
- Decline in energy, concentration, and motivation
How online therapy can help
A psychological journey helps to evaluate the emotional and behavioural components of hypersomnia and to restructure habits and rhythms, in integration with medical assessment.

Do I need a sleep study first?
A medical evaluation is useful; psychotherapy works on the emotional and behavioural causes.
Can therapy reduce sleepiness?
By improving mood, anxiety, and routines, daytime sleepiness often improves as well.
