Adapting CBT-I for Hazardous Alcohol Users

Research Question:
To develop and test a behavioral treatment for insomnia that is adapted for people who may drink too much but may not meet criteria for alcohol use disorder.

Basic Study Information

Purpose:
The goal of this intervention development trial is to develop, refine, and test a telephone-delivered, 4-session version of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia adapted to hazardous alcohol users with co-occurring insomnia. The project will begin with a small, open label pilot to refine the intervention and proceed to a small, randomized trial comparing the intervention to a sleep and alcohol education control condition. The two main questions it aims to answer are whether the intervention is feasible to deliver and whether its effects on alcohol use and insomnia severity are large enough to warrant further work.
