Are You Struggling With Sleep or Insomnia?

Home » Areas of Specialty » Sleep or Insomnia » Page 29

Insomnia is the difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep. But many people who don’t have insomnia (sleeplessness at least three days a week for at least three months) may still have sleep issues. Lack of sleep affects people in their everyday lives and can be detrimental to their physical and mental health.

Available Treatment Options

Counseling interventions include cognitive, behavioral, and emotional strategies depending on each person’s individual needs. A therapist may examine a person’s thought patterns related to sleep. Are there unhelpful thoughts that are inhibiting the ability to go to sleep? Therapists and counselors also may use behavioral tactics, such as stimulus control or establishing bedtime routines. Additionally, if the insomnia is related to a trauma disorder, the therapist may attempt to help the person process the emotions and concerns related to the trauma.

Why do so many of us avoid feeling? Somewhere along the line, we learned that discomfort was "bad." We all avoid in certain ways and it takes strength to look at ourselves compassionately. I balance a realistic, no fluff approach with warmth and empathy. We are all going through something, but I believe we can heal and be inspired by the little things (which eventually become the big things)....
Sometimes we just feel out of sync with ourselves and or the world. Trauma creates challenges for the brain. When something bad happens, we try to "suck it up" and move on. Or, we may be told "just forget what happened" or "get over it"! Without closure we can be reminded of what happened and triggered to behave in less effective ways, or worse, hurt others or mess up our own lives. We want to...
