Guided Autobiography Group (GAB) Programme


The Guided Autobiography Group (GAB) programme was developed by Dr James E. Birren, an ageing research pioneer. The programme gives older people a chance to look back at their lives lived, and to explore their lives moving forward, with new directions, meaning and optimism. It is a semi-structured process of life review that incorporates individual and group experiences using reminiscence, narrative therapy and exploration of the inner psychological experience of the individual.

Through the GAB programme, ComSA helps elderly to reflect, view, explore, appreciate and document their journey through their past, present, and future.
