Overcoming the Behavior Challenge of Sleep for Adults is a practical, compassionate guide for adults-and those who support them-struggling with poor sleep, irregular routines, or sleep-related anxiety. Many adults with Autism, ADHD, Intellectual Disabilities, or other neurodivergent needs face unique challenges when it comes to falling and staying asleep. Sensory sensitivities, racing thoughts, disrupted routines, or fear around sleep can make rest feel impossible. This guide offers step-by-step strategies, calming techniques, and visual tools developed by a collaborative team of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), Speech-Language Pathologists, and Registered Nurses. You'll learn how to create personalized bedtime routines, reduce nighttime resistance, and build healthier sleep habits. Whether you're a caregiver, clinician, or adult working on your own goals, this resource helps turn sleep struggles into structured success. Small changes lead to better nights-and a more rested, empowered you.
