Summary

Project STAR aims to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy of a CBT-I supplement to outpatient alcohol and substance use treatment.

Detailed description

Among those who receive treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD), one in three relapses to problematic drinking within one year of treatment. Thus, additional treatment strategies are needed. Notably, up to 74% of individuals seeking treatment for AUD report co-occurring symptoms of insomnia, while 85% of those seeking SUD treatment report insomnia symptoms. Given the negative impact of insomnia on attention and emotion regulation, insomnia symptoms may decrease patients' abilities to attend to treatment for substance use and manage negative emotions that lead to craving and relapse. This project aims to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy of a CBT-I supplement to substance use treatment. Forty adults who meet diagnostic criteria for AUD or SUD and Insomnia Disorder will receive Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). In order to generate hypotheses regarding the efficacy of CBT-I for individuals who are and are not engaged in substance use treatment, we aim to recruit 20 participants who are engaged in substance use treatment through the community at baseline and 20 participants who are not. Outcomes will be assessed at the end of the active intervention period (6 weeks) and at 6 weeks post-intervention
