RECRUITING

Restorative Early Sleep Treatment After the Emergency Department

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to pilot the virtual delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and nightmares (CBT-I\&N) via telehealth as an early intervention for treating posttraumatic sleep disturbance in acute trauma patients exposed to interpersonal violence. The main aims are to: 1. Test the acceptability, feasibility, and satisfaction of sleep-focused CBT delivered early after trauma 2. Evaluate the impact of sleep-focused CBT delivered early after trauma on sleep disturbance 3. Evaluate the impact of sleep-focused CBT delivered early after trauma on PTSD symptoms The investigators will compare CBT-I and CBT-I\&N to sleep education control. Participants will meet with a provider for 6 weekly sessions via telehealth and complete surveys on the participants' symptoms.
