Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia in Aging

Participants will learn and practice 20 movements in 1 hour sessions twice per week for 16 weeks

For each 2-hour session held once a week for 16 weeks, the CBT treatment manual will outline objectives, patient skills, and treatment activities. Therapists will direct role-playing and other skill-development exercises that will be designed to increase patients' self-efficacy in managing their insomnia. Homework assignments will be planned weekly to ensure practice and skill application.

Each 2-hour session, held once a week for 16 weeks, consists of a 60-minute video presentation followed by a 60-minute question-and-answer discussion.
