This study will employ cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) among individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) who experience sleep disturbances. The research aims to evaluate the effects of CBT-I on sleep, mTBI symptoms, and, in particular, the ability of individuals with mTBI to engage in their desired daily life activities. The main questions this study aims to answer are:
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is an evidence-based intervention that has demonstrated significant results in various populations. CBT-I is a structured and goal-oriented approach that addresses both unhelpful thoughts and maladaptive behaviors contributing to poor sleep. CBT-I includes several components, such as behavioral strategies that aim to change habits disrupting sleep architecture and cognitive techniques targeting maladaptive beliefs about sleep. However, limited research has examined the use of this intervention among individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), particularly regarding its impact on their ability to perform daily life activities. This study aims to evaluate how CBT-I can impact sleep, mTBI symptoms, and participants' functional performance.

| 15 mTBI cases who have sleep problems will receive CBT-I | Experimental | We will achieve the study's aims with a single-group, pre-post design (n=15). Participants with physician-diagnosed mild traumatic brain injury who are experiencing sleep problems for more than four weeks will receive cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). Participants will engage in six one-hour, weekly CBT-I sessions delivered in a one-on-one format through the Zoom Video Conference. Participants will establish sleep-related goals. During the intervention session, the interventionist will address the cognitive and behavioral components of CBT-I, as well as relaxation techniques and sleep hygiene. |

| Cognitive behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) | Behavioral | CBT-I is an evidence-based psychotherapy designed to address insomnia. This structured and multifaceted intervention aims to help individuals who have trouble falling asleep or/ and staying asleep during the night. CBT-I is a multi-component treatment that includes two core parts: behavioral and cognitive aspects. It consists of Sleep Restriction Therapy (SRT), Stimulus Control Therapy (SCT), and Cognitive Therapy (CT) with an emphasis on Cognitive restructuring, as well as Psychoeducation and Sleep Hygiene Education. Each CBT-I session has a clear structure and includes various components such as assessment, psychoeducation, behavioral and cognitive interventions, adherence monitoring, and strategies for preventing relapse. In this study, participants will receive CBT-I in a one-on-one setting, meeting on Zoom once a week for six weeks, and each session will last an hour. |

| The expanded consensus sleep diary (CSD) | The expanded consensus sleep diary (CSD) is intended for use both in the morning and evening.

Scores range from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating poorer sleep quality. | Baseline (Day 1) |
| Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) | The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is a sleep questionnaire consisting of 8 items that assesses daytime sleepiness. A score of 10 or higher indicates pathological daytime sleepiness. The total score ranges from 0 to 24, with higher scores indicating greater daytime sleepiness. | Baseline (Day 1) |
| Canadian Occupation Performance Measure (COPM) | The Canadian Occupation Performance Measure (COPM) is a self-reported measure of an individual's perceived performance and satisfaction in important daily activities. Scores range from 1 (low) to 10 (high) for both performance and satisfaction, with higher scores indicating better outcomes. |

Total scores range from 0 to 80, with higher scores indicating more pronounced executive dysfunction. | Baseline (day 1) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) | The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a brief cognitive screening tool that assesses multiple cognitive domains including memory, attention, language, visuospatial skills, and executive function.
