Compassion focused therapy for older people: Why it is needed and adaptations for clinical practice
Overview
This paper discusses the application of Compassion-Focused Therapy to older adults, addressing challenges such as health decline, loss, and ageism. It outlines adaptations for clinical practice, including work with those living with dementia, based on Gilbert's therapeutic themes. The authors note that while older patients find CFT acceptable and beneficial, there is currently a lack of high-quality research confirming its effectiveness.
