About this study

Cognitive-behavioral therapy and pharmacotherapy are effective interventions for insomnia. Even so, about half of patients do not adequately respond to these treatments. Non-remission has been linked to high cognitive arousal that does not improve with traditional therapies. This study will examine the effects of mindfulness-based therapy for insomnia (MBTI) in a sample of patients who previously failed cognitive behavioral therapy and/or pharmacotherapy for insomnia.

This trial utilizes a single-arm, open label trial of MBTI. MBTI is delivered via telemedicine video in an individual therapy format.

Male and female participants who have insomnia, are age 18 and older, and who are recruited into the study will complete an initial assessment of their qualifications that are based on the severity of their insomnia symptoms, depression symptoms, and physical and mental health status. Eligible participants will undergo a clinical sleep interview and then complete 8 sessions of MBTI. Study outcomes are assessed via online survey before treatment, after treatment, and then a 6-month follow-up.

Treatment and study plan

Mindfulness-Based Therapy for Insomnia

Behavioral

Mindfulness-based therapy for insomnia (MBTI) will use mindfulness-based stress reduction techniques to specifically target cognitive-emotional arousal associated with non-refractory insomnia.

Other names: MBTI

Primary outcomes

  1. Insomnia Severity Index

    Time frame: Pre-treatment, post-treatment (7 weeks following initiation of treatment), and 6 months follow-up (6 months following conclusion of treatment)

    Insomnia Severity Index Score (ISI; total score range 0-28, with higher scores indicating greater severity of insomnia symptoms)

  2. Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire-15 (FFMQ-15)

    Time frame: Pre-treatment, post-treatment (7 weeks after initiation of treatment), and 6 months follow-up (6 months following treatment conclusion)

    Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire - 15 (total scores ranges 15-75, with higher scores indicating someone who is more mindful in their everyday life.)
