摘要
Caring for a frail relative can be a stressful undertaking. Caregivers are faced with a series of losses, and old interpersonal wounds are often reopened. Project Assist was designed to study the efficacy of time-limited psychodynamic and cognitive/behavioral therapies for experienced and recent caregivers. It offers psychotherapy that can assist caregivers in separating their own emotions, identity, and well-being from those of the care receiver. This process appears necessary for the individuation and mental health of caregivers. © 1990 by The Cerontological Society of America.
