We are all aware that life can be challenging, and often feels out of our control. Sometimes we are surrounded by obstacles that seem insurmountable, and at other times even the simple things overwhelm us. There are days when you know exactly what is bothering you, and other days that it feels as though you're walking through a heavy cloud and simply can't find your way through. You want things to get better, but you can't make it happen. You've tried different ways of controlling or changing your situation, or just "looking on the bright side," but perhaps more often than you would like those efforts fall short.

We can figure this out. If you’re feeling tired, fearful, and disconnected, and your current way of living isn’t working, my approach to therapy will help. A lot of our suffering comes from hard to control, negative thoughts about ourselves and the world that got ingrained in us as we grew up. Often, we don’t even notice what’s keeping us trapped, and it’s tough to know exactly what to do to get out of a rut.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists

How effective is treatment for insomnia?

The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?

There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?

There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?

Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
