Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In addition to the participants who will be offered sleep hygiene education and the 3-session CBTI-CS,10 additional participants will be recruited to participate in a pilot evaluation of the CBTI-CS intervention delivered via telehealth. This will be a pilot aspect of the study and data from these participants will be for descriptive purposes.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Arm A (Sleep Hygiene & CBTI-CS)
Participants receive a single educational session describing principles of Sleep Hygiene for Cancer Survivors. Those who continue to have significant symptoms of insomnia then receive 3 groups CBTI-CS sessions
CBTI-CS
CBTI-CS is a multi-modal intervention designed to address both cognitive and behavioral factors that perpetuate insomnia. Cognitive factors are addressed via cognitive restructuring and psychoeducation. Behavioral factors are addressed by structured sleep restriction, stimulus control and sleep hygiene techniques. Cancer treatment late-effects affecting sleep are addressed as potential contributors to these cognitive and behavioral factors, and as symptoms that may benefit from referral for medical evaluation/management. Participants are instructed in these cognitive-behavioral strategies as a group, but using analysis of personal sleep-log data, symptom self-reports and targeted workbook exercises, they are helped to tailor the intervention to address their specific needs.
Sleep Hygiene
Education on health behaviors, sleep habits and environmental practices intended to promote good quality sleep. Recommendations target exercise and natural light exposure,use of stimulants and alcohol, daytime napping, timing of meals, creating a comfortable non-stimulating sleep space, and creating sleep rituals.
Arm B (Telehealth Pilot of CBTI-CS)
Descriptive data collected on 10 participants (non-randomized) receiving CBTI-CS via Telehealth.
CBTI-CS via Telehealth
The CBTI-CS intervention, a multi-modal intervention designed to address both cognitive and behavioral factors that perpetuate insomnia, will be administered via live video. conferencing. Participants will have a single in-person training session and subsequent CBTI-CS group sessions will be conducted by live video conference.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria

* Able to read and write in English
* Willing to attend study group sessions
* Motivated and able to follow the demands of the CBTI-CS program, to keep sleep records, complete self-report symptom reports and make changes in their sleep schedule, including restricting their sleep.
Exclusion Criteria
* Survivors who report ever being diagnosed with a Seizure Disorder or have experienced a seizure in the past 12 months will be excluded.
* Intention to adjust (decrease or increase) use of sedative, hypnotic, or over-the-counter medications that can affect sleep during the study period.
* Have diagnosed, untreated sleep apnea, or sleep apnea suspected by a physician but which has not been evaluated, or other sleep disorder
* Employment that involves irregular sleep patterns, such as shift-work or frequent long-distance travel that involves adjusting to different time zones, or employment in a position that could impact public safety (such as operating heavy machinery)
