User Experience of a Sequenced Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Internet Intervention for Insomnia and Pain Management in Adolescents with Migraine: A Qualitative Study

Insomnia is recognized as a risk factor for reduced benefit from cognitive-behavioral pain treatment (CBT-Pain) for adolescents with chronic pain. While hybrid treatments have been studied which combine cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and CBT-pain, outcomes have been highly variable. As an alternate approach, we designed a sequenced internet-delivered insomnia and pain treatment for adolescents with chronic migraine. We sought to understand the user experience of a subset of adolescents who participated in a larger, ongoing efficacy trial.
