Embedding Aphasia-Modified Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Script Training for Primary Progressive Aphasia: A Single-Case Pilot Study
Conclusions Results indicate that script training with aphasia-modified cognitive behavioral therapy is a feasible treatment for an individual with the nonfluent/agrammatic variant of PPA, with immediate and lasting benefits to speech-language production and psychosocial functioning. These findings are the first to support the integration of personal adjustment counseling techniques within a speech-language treatment paradigm for PPA.
