Brief summary
This trial evaluates the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of delivering iCBT for insomnia prior to Reboot Online. It will assess whether targeting sleep first leads to greater improvements in pain, psychological wellbeing, and functioning compared with Reboot alone. We hypothesis that iCBT insomnia + Reboot Online will be a feasible model of care for participants reporting chronic pain and sleep disturbance and will result in significant reductions in pain interference and pain disability.
