PREDI-CHRONOS is an ancillary study of the CHRONOS project (NCT07180290) The goal of this study is to measure the association between therapeutic alliance and the clinical response to the CHRONOS therapy. The CHRONOS therapy is a new psychotherapy integrating: 1. Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy 2. Chronotherapies to regulate sleep/wake cycles 3. Positive mental imagery for stress management 4. Mindfulness therapy for both stress and hyperarousal state management This therapy applied to patients with mood disorders (uni- or bipolar disorder). All participants in the study underwent the therapy. Response was defined as an improvement in the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) from baseline to the end of the study. The aim is to study the association of the therapeutic alliance with the response to the CHRONOS therapy, using the working alliance inventory (WAI) questionnaire. Secondary objectives were to identify other factors potentially associated with the response to the therapy: history of a trauma, emotional regulation, and time perspective.
