Abstract
So far, only few support programs for informal caregivers of palliative patients have been developed. We developed a support group ("Existential Behavioral Therapy", EBT) based on newer methods of cognitive behavioral therapy and existential psychotherapy. In a randomized controlled trial, long-term effects on quality of life and symptom distress were found in group participants compared to a standard care control group. In this review, the feasibility and effectiveness results of EBT treatment are summarized. For more detailed information, we refer to the original publications [1-4]. Currently, a short-term individualized intervention (consisting of two sessions) is being evaluated in a follow-up project.
