  • Experimental: Family Caregiver Transdiagnostic Intervention for Sleep and Circadian Dysfunction
    The Family Caregiver Transdiagnostic Intervention for Sleep and Circadian Dysfunction (Caregiver TranS-C) is a tailored intervention that integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and caregiving guidance. A 12-week intervention, consisting of 4 bi-weekly in-person sessions and 2 bi-weekly follow-up calls phone calls, Caregiver TranS-C includes four cross-cutting modules: case formulation, sleep and circadian education, behavior change and motivation, and goal setting. The modules are tailored to each participants' baseline sleep assessment.

    Participants randomized to the Enhanced Usual Care (EUC) control group will receive no intervention during the 14-week study period. Upon completion of the study, participants in the EUC group will receive their sleep report along with sleep health recommendations, the intervention workbook, and a list of caregiving resources.
