Hope.Relief.Freedom. Life has gotten progressively more difficult over the last few years. People of all ages are struggling with fatigue, discouragement, despair, and even hopelessness. All of these things result in poor performance in regulating emotions and navigating relationships, controlling behavior (especially for kids and teenagers), focusing your attention and concentration, jobs and careers, sports, academics, and daily life. Despite what you've heard, and maybe come to believe, you and your kids can put all those life "performance difficulties" behind you and thrive in a way you perhaps have never imagined.

If you’re reading this you’ve probably been struggling yourself, with feelings like frustration, helplessness, loneliness, and anger. Unresolved conflicts between parents can begin to unravel a couple's abilities to work well together, and then the whole family suffers.

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.
