A system for delivering sensory stimulation a sensor; a sensory stimulator configured to deliver sensory stimulation to a patient during a sleep session, the sensory stimulation having varying stimulation intensity levels; and a computer system. One or more physical processors being programmed with computer program instructions which, when executed cause the computer system to: determine sleep stage information of the patient based on brain activity information of the patient during the sleep session from the sensor; provide input to the sensory stimulator based on the determined sleep stage information of the patient, the provided input causing the sensory stimulator to deliver the sensory stimulation to the patient; obtain stimulation response information from the patient, the stimulation response information including patient brain response to the delivered sensory stimulation; and determine a range of the stimulation intensity levels within which the patient brain response reaches a threshold.
