Metacognitive Training-Silver BeWell

Metacognitive Training- Silver BeWell is a cognitive behavioral based group intervention, which focuses on helping participants gain (metacognitive) distance from thought and behavioral patterns as well as behaviors and ER-strategies that are implicated in the onset of depression and reduced overall mental well-being. In 10 modules, MCT-Silver addresses issues specific to later life such as coping with physical changes and loss, as well as adapting to new (social) roles. The program also includes modules on identifying and re-defining values in later life, acceptance of negative feelings and resilience. In the training participants are made aware of information processing biases that have been shown to contribute to the onset of depression through engaging exercises using examples from daily life. Groups are comprised of up to 10 participants. Each session is 90 minutes.
