Abstract
Patients with psychotic disorders show profound disturbances in sleep, including insomnia, nightmares, and unstable sleep/wake rhythms. While emerging research shows that disrupted sleep reduces the quality of life, increases suicide risk, and provokes psychotic symptoms, patients often lack access to evidence-based behavioral sleep medicine treatments. The goal of this chapter is to prepare behavioral sleep medicine clinicians to treat sleep disturbances in individuals with psychotic disorders.
