nsomnia treatment can take weeks to months, depending on the cause and response to therapy.
This is a very general question and there are many kinds of insomnia. Assuming that this is a straightforward chronic insomnia not associated with severe anxiety or depression or underlying medical disorder cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is the right treatment of choice. It takes roughly 2 months though additional follow-up may be helpful.
