NCT ID NCT06567210

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether an online, therapist-guided program for insomnia can also reduce anxiety symptoms. 98 adults with both chronic insomnia and anxiety will either start the program immediately or after a delay. The program includes sleep education, behavioural strategies, and relaxation techniques, and researchers will track changes in anxiety, sleep, and brain activity.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a widely accessible online treatment that eases both insomnia and anxiety symptoms.

What could go wrong
