Dyadic Life Review (DLR)

DLR will consist of 8 sessions delivered by a trained licensed clinician (i.e, the PI or other trained clinician) via video-conferencing in weekly sessions of 60 minutes. Each session will facilitate a recall of each phase of life: childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, mid-life, earlier later life, and later life. While together, the patient and caregiver will each be asked structured questions to prompt reminiscence of memories from that phase of life.
