This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a type of online therapy called cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I)—adapted specifically for people with ulcerative colitis—can help you sleep better. The therapy focuses on changing sleep habits and thoughts about sleep rather than using medication. Researchers want to see if this approach is practical, acceptable to patients, and actually works to reduce sleep problems.
Many people with ulcerative colitis struggle with insomnia and poor sleep, which can make their condition worse and affect their quality of life. This trial exists because there's a need for sleep treatments that understand and address the unique challenges of living with ulcerative colitis.

You would participate in 5 online therapy sessions over 7 to 8 weeks, plus a few brief phone calls between sessions. Throughout the study, you'll fill out questionnaires and keep a daily sleep diary online to track how you're sleeping. The entire process takes place remotely, so you can do it from home.
