As students go back to school, many adolescents will have to advance their sleep phase in order to start classes early in the morning. While delayed sleep phase syndrome is common during adolescence, insomnia symptomatology may be underrecognized. It may be attributed to excessive screen time, social jet lag, or too much caffeine. We try to provide education around proper sleep hygiene techniques and often deploy cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, which was developed for adults. Are there other special considerations for adolescents? Does it make sense to utilize CBT-I in this age group? Is it appropriate to utilize sleep restriction therapy for teenagers? Should we adapt our current CBT-I algorithms to better suit the adolescent population? Here to help us answer these questions are Dr. Maureen Elizabeth McQuillan and Dr. Sarah Morsbach Honaker.
