This book is a user-friendly guide to Interpersonal Psychotherapy
(IPT), an empirically-tested and effective approach to treating
depression. It is intended for persons affected by depression who
are seeking or currently undergoing IPT. This book begins with a
description of depression disorders and addresses common patient
concerns. It then introduces the patient to Interpersonal
Psychotherapy and also answers frequently-asked questions about the
psychotherapeutic relationship. The next chapters, which are
organized around common causes of depression, describe the process
of treating depression with IPT and offer typical case examples at
the end of each problem area. Throughout the book, worksheet guides
help the patient think about problems and solutions to depression
in constructive ways. This book helps readers learn about
depression, its symptoms, and how they relate to events in the
patient's life. When used as a part of therapy with IPT and in
conjunction with the accompanying monitoring forms, this book can
help patients manage the effects of depression.
