Cognitive stimulation therapy is a non-pharmacological intervention for people with dementia at mild to moderate stages.

In each session, mentally stimulating activities are conducted around a specific themed, such as current affairs, word association, categorising objects, and number game. Each group consists of eight people with similar levels of cognitive impairment, facilitated by two group leaders who lead the activities according to 18 key principles of the therapy, including new associations, opinions rather than facts, implicit learning, and person-centred.
