ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a type of therapy called Analytic-Integrative Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to see if it helps people with acute insomnia disorder, which is often caused by stress. The goal is to find out if this therapy can improve sleep and overall well-being for those who are struggling to sleep due to stress.

To participate in the study, you need to be at least 18 years old and meet certain criteria, such as having been diagnosed with insomnia disorder and scoring above 5 on a sleep quality questionnaire. However, this study is not for everyone. If you have serious physical or mental health issues, certain sleep disorders, or are pregnant or breastfeeding, you won't be eligible to join. If you decide to participate, you can expect to receive therapy focused on improving your sleep and managing stress, and you'll be helping researchers learn more about effective treatments for insomnia.
