Resumen

La agenda de asesoramiento psicológico establecida para tratar con la depresión en edades avanzadas es a menudo realizada con farmacoterapia, la cual ha probado clínicamente ser bastante efectiva reduciendo y, en muchos casos también, aliviando los síntomas. Mientras que la intervención médica convencional se enfoca en la reducción de los síntomas de la depresión, las modalidades psicoterapéuticas como la terapia cognitiva-conductual han probado ser de alguna manera efectivas creando una experiencia más estable de satisfacción existencial, ofreciendo un sentido más profundo de bienestar que simplemente reduciendo los síntomas. La logoterapia geriátrica se presenta con un énfasis en satisfacción existencial extraída de la entrada a lo que se denomina “la ventana a la historia de vida”, en donde el terapeuta asiste al paciente explorando el pasado en búsqueda de “la memoria feliz”. Puesto que la agenda de asesoramiento en edades avanzadas es más paliativa que de asistencia curativa, este enfoque logoterapéutico ha producido una valiosa modalidad de tratamiento de exploración adicional con atención particular en la reminiscencia y en el estudio de la historia de vida
