| book description |

This handbook addresses the extremely challenging situation that family caregivers of people with dementia face and is informed by the use of evidence-based psychotherapeutic strategies to support them. The book guides readers step-by step through effective therapeutic strategies, mainly based on cognitive-behavioral therapy, and illustrated with excerpts of dialogs between therapists and family caregivers from real sessions. Different modules address topics such as dealing with challenging behavior, self-care, perfectionism and guilt, and changes in the relationship with the ill person, barriers to seeking social and professional support, stress management and emotion regulation, accepting oneâ€™s own limits, and dealing with institutionalization. These modules can be put together to meet different individualsâ€™ needs. Particular emphasis is placed on creating a positive therapeutic alliance and helping caregivers develop the motivation for change. Finally, multiple handouts that can be used in clinical practice are available for download. The intervention is suitable for various settings, including face-to-face or remote forms such as telephone or online therapy. This manual is ideal for clinical psychologists, gerontologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, and social workers working with people with dementia and their families.
