Brief description of study

Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) has been the ‘gold standard’ for the treatment of insomnia. Previous research has indicated that metabolism changes when insomnia is treated. The goal of this study is to learn a little bit more and better understand the relationship between insomnia and metabolism.

The first visit is a screening visit where you will be asked to answer questions about your sleep, thoughts, and feelings as well as a provide a fasting blood draw. If eligible, you will be provided two devices. One is a portable sleep monitoring device that you will wear for one night and a wrist worn device for one week. After study staff receive the devices back you will be randomized in to one of 2 groups: CBT-I right away or a waitlist group where you will wait 8 weeks prior to starting CBT-I.

CBT-I is currently being offered either in-person or via telemedicine, at the patients' preference.

Following treatment, you will be given the wrist worn device to wear for a week and will come in to the office for another fasting blood draw and to answer questionnaires about 2 weeks after treatment.
