Change is hard. That's the saying, right? What if I were to say change is good, but it's the transitions that are hard? Hi, I'm Brittany Stahl, limited licensed counselor. I work with teens and young adults, ages 12-30, specifically because this time of life brings many transitional stages. In middle school and high school we find ourself trying to "find ourself", which is then followed by college or career exploration. Serious dating, marriage, kids, and potentially divorce may follow. These transitions can cause upsetting symptoms of anger, depression, anxiety, identity issues, self-esteem issues, etc.

My personal theoretical foundation is not limited to one approach. I believe it is necessary for counselors to be adaptive. Every client is different and our responses and approaches should be equally diverse. One person may need a cognitive behavioral approach whereas another would be more responsive to brief counseling. This eclectic approach will be applied to all clients. Techniques will vary between clients to best meet the individual client's needs.

I once heard that in order to live a fulfilling life you need to live it fully everyday. Living fully can look different from day to day. Some days living fully may bring joy, peace, excitement, & love as you form new relationships, pursue your passions, & discover more about yourself. Yet other days living fully may bring frustration, sorrow, fear, and pain as you face loss, trauma, and uncertainty. In either of these cases, living fully is done in relationship and living alongside another can bring healing beyond belief. I strive to be that ally, to walk alongside others as they experience the joys & challenges of living fully.

A fundamental part of the work I do is emphasizing acceptance to work towards change and living a life in line with their values. By recognizing conflict and patterns developed from the past, clients feel empowered to make choices instead of living at the mercy of parts of themselves that no longer serve them. Along the way, I engage clients with skill development that suites their needs. Being creative and collaborative in session is a source of joy I actively cultivate.

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.
