Personalized nursing interventions are essential to support these caregivers and promote their well-being. Objectives: The objective of this study was to implement and evaluate a personalized psychoeducational intervention—Curae de Mim (Care for Me)—designed to reduce caregivers’ burden and enhance the emotional resilience among informal caregivers for people with Alzheimer’s disease. Methods: A mixed-methods study was conducted with 14 informal caregivers in a Portuguese community healthcare setting. The intervention consisted of six weekly group sessions guided by a mental health nurse, using cognitive–behavioral and recovery-oriented approaches. Results: After the intervention, the caregivers’ burden scores decreased significantly. The mean burden score dropped from 78 to 50. The thematic analysis revealed two key outcomes: emotional empowerment through peer interactions and reframing of the caregiver’s role through knowledge and self-care. Conclusions: This program proved effective in reducing caregivers’ burden and promoting adaptive coping. The integration of narrative reflection and specialized nursing care contributed to improved mental health outcomes.engInformal caregiverAlzheimer’s diseasePsychoeducational interventionMental healthNarrative carePersonalized nursingCommunity healthjournal article10.3390/jpm15070270
