However, there is a lack of studies on Emotion-Focused Therapy and forgiveness specifically tailored for older adults. This article describes a protocol to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a Randomized Controlled Trial of Emotion-Focused Therapy for the resolution of emotional injury in individuals over the age of 65 in the context of interpersonal offenses. The study is structured as a two-arm, parallel-group randomized trial with a waiting list control. We propose recruiting a sample of 70 participants, randomly assigned to either an immediate intervention group, which will receive Emotion-Focused Therapy over twelve weekly sessions, or a control group that will receive the same therapy after a twelve-week waiting period. Data will be collected in the beginning, middle, and at the end of therapy, and in two planned follow-ups (three and six months after therapy). Once this protocol is implemented, if the therapy proves to be feasible, acceptable, and shows promising results, the findings will inform a large-scale randomized clinical trial to advance the understanding of psychotherapy.",[21,72,73],"Aging","Forgiveness",[75],"Emotion-Focused Therapy; Forgiveness; Aging; Randomized Controlled Trial; Feasibility Protocol","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2024-11-10",{"date":79,"type":80},"2024-11-13","ACTUAL",{"date":82,"type":66},"2025-04-01",{"date":84,"type":66},"2025-12-31",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
