Interventions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia includes evaluation and orientation; data acquisition and delivery of sleep restriction therapy \& stimulus control instructions; review of sleep hygiene; cognitive therapy \[decatastrophization\]; managing nonadherence and relapse prevention), and, finally, the final sessions will be largely focused on time-in-bed titration.
