Interventions
Web-based intervention that will include 4 weekly sessions and 4 bimonthly boosters. Each session is to be completed individually by CG (with PWD to extent able) in a single sitting (less than 45 mins). Each session should be completed in 7 days with next session released only after prior one completed. Session 1 focuses on sleep education, sleep hygiene, and stimulus control. Session 2 focuses on sleep compression, relaxation, and problem solving. Session 3 focuses on coping and stress management and cognitive therapy. Session 4 focuses on a review of skills and plan for maintenance of behavior change.
