Interventions

TranS-CBEHAVIORAL

TranS-C will be provided in eight weekly, one-on-one 50-minute sessions delivered remotely by two-way video conferencing. Each week will include goal setting and homework assignments which will be reviewed in the following session. The sessions will include information on sleep and circadian rhythms, behavioral change and motivation, and goal setting. The topics covered in the sessions include establishing regular sleep-wake times, learning a wind-down route, learning a wake-up routine, improving daytime functioning, correcting unhelpful sleep-related beliefs, and maintenance of behavior change.
