Hi, I’m Amanda.

I’m an Insomnia and Sleep Consultant, professional speaker and founder of SleepSpot.

My path to this work has taken me through nursing, business psychology, occupational health, clinical hypnotherapy and strategic psychotherapy. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked across healthcare, mining and fatigue risk management, while also building three businesses and raising a family.

Along the way, I’ve seen how deeply sleep can be affected by the pressures of everyday life, from stress and overthinking to demanding work, major life changes and the environments in which we live and work.

Those experiences led me to create SleepSpot, bringing together personalised insomnia support, workplace and team training, and professional speaking to help individuals and organisations sleep better, feel better and perform at their best.

Our work

SleepSpot brings together three areas of work, all connected by one purpose: helping people understand sleep differently and use it to improve health, wellbeing and performance.

The Insomnia Studio

At the heart of SleepSpot is the Insomnia Studio in East Fremantle, offering personalised support for adults experiencing persistent insomnia.

The Studio is designed for people who may understand the basics of healthy sleep, yet still struggle to fall asleep, stay asleep, return to sleep after waking or feel increasingly anxious about sleep itself.

My approach works with the thoughts, habits, emotional responses and learned associations that can keep insomnia going. Treatment may draw on CBT-I, clinical hypnotherapy, strategic psychotherapy and behavioural sleep coaching, shaped around each person rather than a single formula.

The aim is not perfect sleep. It is to reduce the pressure around sleep, rebuild confidence and help sleep feel more natural and dependable again.

Team training

SleepSpot works with workplaces, sporting teams and organisations to improve sleep health, fatigue awareness, recovery and sustainable performance.

Programs and workshops turn sleep science into practical strategies people can use in demanding, real-world environments.

Professional speaking

Through keynotes, conferences and media, I bring sleep science to life in a way that is practical, engaging and relevant.

My speaking explores the relationship between sleep, stress, resilience, mental health, fatigue and performance, helping audiences see sleep as far more than something that happens at the end of the day.

What I bring to the work

My professional background spans nursing, sleep health, business psychology, clinical hypnotherapy, strategic psychotherapy and occupational health.

For more than 25 years, I have worked across healthcare, mining, leadership, workplace education, fatigue risk management, while also raising a family.

These experiences have shaped my understanding of how stress, demanding work, health, behaviour, life transitions and the environments we live and work in can influence sleep.

I bring these perspectives together in an approach that is practical, collaborative and grounded in everyday life.

The studio

SleepSpot’s Insomnia Studio in East Fremantle provides a calm and private setting to explore what's been happening with your sleep and what may be keeping the pattern going.

Telehealth appointments are also available.

The initial appointment focuses on understanding your sleep history, current difficulties, health, lifestyle and treatment goals. From there, a personalised pathway can be developed.

Sometimes the answer is not more effort. It is a different approach.
