About this study

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to pilot the virtual delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and nightmares (CBT-I\&N) via telehealth as an early intervention for treating posttraumatic sleep disturbance in acute trauma patients exposed to interpersonal violence. The main aims are to: 1. Test the acceptability, feasibility, and satisfaction of sleep-focused CBT delivered early after trauma 2. Evaluate the impact of sleep-focused CBT delivered early after trauma on sleep disturbance 3. Evaluate the impact of sleep-focused CBT delivered early after trauma on PTSD symptoms The investigators will compare CBT-I and CBT-I\&N to sleep education control. Participants will meet with a provider for 6 weekly sessions via telehealth and complete surveys on the participants' symptoms.
