Summary

This trial seeks to compare a brief 4-session version of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to a standard 6-session version to see if it can help Veterans with insomnia.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Veterans with insomnia who have an Insomnia Severity Index score over 7, meet the criteria for a mental health disorder, haven't had CBT-I therapy in 2 years, and are on stable meds. It's not for those with certain severe mental illnesses, high suicide risk, other sleep disorders, or recent substance abuse.
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I): a brief version with four sessions and the standard VA version with six sessions. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment works as well as the longer one in improving sleep and overall functioning.
What are the potential side effects?
Since CBT-I involves behavioral changes rather than medication, side effects are minimal but can include temporary increases in anxiety or stress due to changes in sleeping habits or frustration during adjustment periods.
