Background: The key features of short-term dynamic interpersonal psychotherapy (STDIP) are outlined along with the background of its development. Preliminary data demonstrating functional improvement in a small case series of patients is presented. Methods: Nineteen patients were evaluated at commencement and end of therapy in a pilot study. Instruments used were the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ); Beck Depression Inventory (BDI); Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI); COPE (Coping Style Questionnaire); Relationship Styles Questionnaire (RSQ) and Social Adjustment Scale-Self Report (SAS-SR). Results: This cohort had significantly elevated scores on the CTQ. They demonstrated substantial improvement on measures including the BDI, and several subscales of BSI, COPE, RSQ and SAS-SR. Conclusions: The small numbers and naturalistic design preclude firm conclusions however the results suggest that STDIP can be used to successfully treat patients, notwithstanding a history of childhood trauma.
