Summary

This study aims to examine whether integrating insomnia and PTSD treatment will enhance sleep, PTSD, and quality of life outcomes. This is a randomized control trial comparing integrated evidence based CBT-I into PE (CBTI-PE) versus to a non-active sleep component plus PE (hygiene-PE) to optimize PTSD, sleep, and quality of life outcomes in 90 Veterans. Such benefits would further the VA's commitment to improving the mental health, recovery, and community reintegration of Veterans detailed in the 2014-2020 VHA Strategic Plan. Findings from the proposed study offer a unique opportunity to determine the malleability of mechanisms (e.g., Total sleep time, Sleep efficiency) that can improve recovery outcomes among this vulnerable population and to inform future treatment development and research. Improved PTSD, insomnia, and quality of life outcomes can decrease risk of chronic impairment and ultimately help affected Veterans live richer, more productive lives.

Conditions

  • Posttraumatic Stress Disorders
  • Chronic Insomnia

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

CBTI-PE

Integrates CBT-I and PE with the goal of enhancing both insomnia and PTSD outcomes. Integrated treatment will be delivered in 14 90-minute weekly sessions. CBTI-PE starts with VA rollout CBT-I for the first 3 weeks with a focus on the effects of PTSD on insomnia. PE protocol (psychoeducation) begins on week 4 of treatment and both treatments overlap till week 6 when CBT-I ends and the active treatment of PE begins (i.e., imaginal and in-vivo exposures). However, CBT-I sleep diary review and sleep time adjustment will continue till the end of treatment to increase adherence

BEHAVIORAL

Hygiene-PE

The investigators have included a non-active sleep control arm (3 Sessions)to allow for the dose response of 14 90 minute sessions. The non-active sleep control condition used in this study is a manualized protocol developed to exclude the active components of standard CBT-I treatment. Hygiene includes presentation of sleep hygiene education and reviewing daily stressors that may impact sleep before starting PE on week 4.
