Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This narrative review and case report explores the application of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for individuals with Huntington's disease and their caregivers. It details a single case involving a 52-year-old patient who completed a six-session, caregiver-assisted virtual intervention, resulting in reduced depressive symptoms and cognitive fusion alongside improved quality of life. The authors suggest that ACT may be a scalable option for this population but call for further research to establish a more robust evidence base.
