Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The intervention includes 4 weekly meetings, 1.5 hours each. College students screened for insomnia attend group therapy based on standard cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia protocol. Participants complete weekly sleep diaries throughout the intervention. They are educated about sleep hygiene principles, stimulus control and sleep restriction therapies and are encouraged to alter their sleep practices based on these principles. Cognitive therapy for insomnia and relaxation therapies (e.g., mindfullness) are also introduced. Weekly follow up is conducted based on sleep diaries. Primary investigator (who completed official CBT and CBT- Insomnia training) together with doctoral student (registered nurse, supervised by the PI for CBT-Insomnia) will deliver the intervention.
