Feasibility of Present-Centered Therapy for Prolonged Grief Disorder: Results of a Pilot Study
Overview
This pilot study evaluates the feasibility and treatment effects of Present-Centered Therapy (PCT) for adults with prolonged grief disorder. Twenty participants received 20–24 sessions from novice therapists, with outcomes measured at post-treatment and three-month follow-up. The results indicate significant reductions in grief severity, depression, and distress, suggesting PCT is a learnable and promising intervention for this population.
