Accelerated Treatment for Insomnia, Nightmares, and PTSD
This study is looking at new ways to help military personnel and veterans (ages 18-65) who are experiencing insomnia, nightmares, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). It compares two different behavioral therapies. One group will receive Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Nightmares (CBTn), combined with Written Exposure Therapy (WET) for PTSD. The other group will receive Sleep Hygiene education, also combined with WET. The goal is to see if these accelerated treatments can improve symptoms of insomnia, nightmares, and PTSD. We are currently unclear on the status of this study, which plans to enroll 160 participants.
