My grandmother has had depression lately. Is psychotherapy effective for the elderly?
10 Answers
There is no age limit for psychotherapy. It would absolutely be effective for your grandmother.
Are you clear on her medical history and medications? Do you see a pattern in your family history. Is she already on medications? Maybe look at the details. Why would you go to a online forum instead of asking her?
Psychotherapy can help eliminate or control troubling symptoms so a person can function better and increase well-being and healing.” Psychotherapy like talk therapy for depression can be beneficial in many situations especially as older adults go through the aging process.
Yes. Psychotherapy can be very effective for depression in the elderly.
