Sleep as a Mechanism of Change in Alcohol Use

Conditions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia — BEHAVIORAL
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). Participants assigned to the CBT-I condition will attend 1-hour individual sessions of CBT-I once a week for five weeks. Consistent with clinical guidelines (Schutte-Rodin, Broch, Buysse, Dorsey, \& Sateia, 2008), treatment will include stimulus control (e.g., limit use of bed to sleep or sexual activity, get out of bed if lying awake for more than 20 minutes), sleep restriction (limit time in bed to amount of time spent sleeping on a typical night), sleep hygiene (e.g., avoid exercise within 2 hours of bedtime, create cool and dark sleep environment), relaxation training, and cognitive restructuring.

This project aims to evaluate improvement of insomnia as a mechanism of improvement in alcohol use outcomes.

Experimental: CBT-I
Individual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) delivered once a week for five (5) weeks.
No Intervention: Waitlist control
Control participants will receive CBT-I at the end of the study.
