According to UpToDate ($) "CBT for insomnia (CBT-I) is preferred as first-line therapy for chronic insomnia in most patients. Several prospective studies have assessed the comparative efficacy of CBT-I, medications, and combination therapy as an initial approach.

Psychiatric doses of ketamine do cause transient hypertension, pretty often. UpToDate says that:
The standard dose of IV ketamine is 0.5 mg/kg (eg 35 mg for a 70 kg person). This is the dose used in most studies and recommended by UpToDate. If that doesn’t work, some people will try going up to 1 mg/kg.
The standard dose of intranasal ketamine is 50 – 80 mg. This is more or less the dose recommended by UpToDate, the dose used in most studies, the FDA-recommended dose of Spravato, and the dose that most successful ketamine providers have told me they use.
