Acceptance and commitment therapy for late-life treatment-resistant generalised anxiety disorder: a feasibility study
Overview
This feasibility study examines the acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for older adults with treatment-resistant generalized anxiety disorder. The resource details a trial involving up to 16 sessions of tailored ACT alongside usual care, reporting on recruitment, retention, and satisfaction metrics. It is intended for researchers or clinicians interested in intervention design and study feasibility for this specific population.
