La Psicoterapia Positiva en C\u00e1ncer, dise\u00f1ada por un equipo del IDIBELL i del ICO, promueve el crecimiento personal durante la enfermedad para potenciar cambios vitales positivos, con los cu\u00e1les reducir a largo plazo el malestar emocional, c\u00f3mo la ansiedad y depresi\u00f3n, y los s\u00edntomas de estr\u00e9s. El malestar emocional que presentan muchas personas con c\u00e1ncer al acabar sus tratamientos oncol\u00f3gicos no tiene tanto que ver con afrontar una amenaza presente, c\u00f3mo puede ser el propio tratamiento, sino con una amenaza futura, como recuperar una vida plena o el miedo a que vuelva la enfermedad.<\/p>\n
La Psicoterapia Positiva facilita acomodar y cambiar la propia vida de forma profunda y consciente a la amenaza que supone el c\u00e1ncer, priorizando especialmente una mayor sinton\u00eda con las relaciones personales significativas. Este foco terap\u00e9utico produce cambios vitales positivos m\u00e1s duraderos que inciden en descensos mantenidos del malestar emocional.<\/p>\n
Afrontar el diagn\u00f3stico y tratamiento de un c\u00e1ncer genera, en un 40% de los pacientes, un malestar emocional significativo que impide llevar una vida normal. Es habitual sentir decaimiento, irritabilidad, experimentar miedo, dificultades para dormir, problemas en las relaciones sociales o \u00edntimas e incertidumbre hacia el futuro. La elevada amenaza de la enfermedad y los posibles cambios f\u00edsicos, laborales y familiares que puede conllevar generan muchas reacciones emocionales. Hasta el momento los tratamientos psico-oncol\u00f3gicos se hab\u00edan centrado en ense\u00f1ar a los pacientes a controlar o manejar estas reacciones, es decir, aprender a paliarlas. Sin embargo, tras el c\u00e1ncer los pacientes no s\u00f3lo experimentan malestar emocional, muchos refieren que la enfermedad ha sido una oportunidad para replantearse profundamente la vida \u201cen positivo\u201d.<\/p>\n
Se realiz\u00f3 un ensayo cl\u00ednico aleatorizado para comparar la Psicoterapia Positiva en C\u00e1ncer y la Terapia Cognitivo-conductual, tratamiento est\u00e1ndar para el manejo de las reacciones de estr\u00e9s. En el estudio participaron 140 mujeres que despu\u00e9s de finalizar sus tratamientos oncol\u00f3gicos para el c\u00e1ncer de mama presentaban un elevado malestar emocional. De \u00e9stas, 67 recibieron Psicoterapia Positiva y 73 Terapia Cognivito-conductual.<\/p>\n
Los resultados, publicados en la revista The Journal of Positive Psychology<\/em>, mostraron que la Psicoterapia Positiva en C\u00e1ncer reduc\u00eda m\u00e1s a largo plazo el malestar emocional y el estr\u00e9s que una terapia centrada en controlar las reacciones de estr\u00e9s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" La nueva terapia, dise\u00f1ada por el equipo del psicoonc\u00f3logo
