Abstract
Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy for tinnitus (MBCT-t) alleviates distress associated with tinnitus but long-term outcomes are unknown. A retrospective survey with people completing MBCT-t over the past nine years found that benefits often continued or improved for years after therapy. Qualitative analysis indicated that key changes supporting such improvements were a result of new, more helpful ways of responding to tinnitus, profound holistic benefits, reduced isolation and enhanced self-compassion and gratitude.
