Sleep is My Waking Passion · Yes, Nightmares Are Treatable featuring Dr. Courtney Worley, PhD. · 17 Jun 2026 podcast

IRT, but with some extra components, namely exposure.

And then the other treatment that we talk about is lucid dreaming therapy.

So lucidity is when we are aware of dreaming while we're dreaming.

Some people have natural capacity for this.

And

Everybody else can be taught.

And so the idea is if we can teach you to become aware of your dreams while you're dreaming and then we can teach you how to make some changes in your dreams while you're dreaming.

You can change the outcome and not have such distressing or upsetting.

You can change the dream within the dream.

Is that cool?

Wow, that is so cool.

It's been really powerful to see that work with some of my patients.

And so being able to change it.

So then whatever happens, they can make changes because some people will say, No, I'm the same nightmare all the time.

I have kind of variations or themes.

And so it might be hard to just target one with a rescription.

So instead

We might load up the toolkit with some ways to change it as it's happened or pack some things to bring into our dream to help us.

With the Nightmare and Sleep Disorder Toolkit, we take all of the skills that we use in clinical practice and lay them out in a way that

creates tasks and and skills for the individual to use.
