NCT04771234

Brief Summary

In this non-randomized treatment feasibility pilot we want to explore if a simplified version of CBT-i as a non-therapist-guided digital tool can work; if the digital tool is perceived as user friendly and if participants' insomnia severity is improved following four weeks of treatment.

  • Treatment acceptability/usefulness

    Qualitative quesions regarding participant perception of using the digital tool (ease of use, whether the tool was helpful)

    From base-line to 4 weeks

Treatment group

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention consists of a self-guided digital tool to guide participants with chronic insomnia through sleep restriction and stimulus control procedures.

Behavioral: Digital self-guided CBT-i

Interventions

A brief version of CBT-i consisting of brief psychoeducation, and the core components sleep restricion and stimulus control, where sleep restriction is based on a simplified sleep diary.

Also known as: Self-care digital tool
