Interpersonal psychotherapy, or IPT, is a form of mental health treatment for patients with clinical depression. Working with a trained therapist, the patient learns to understand how relationships with others affect the symptoms of depression. The therapist helps the patient to identify key relationships that can influence depression and ways to minimize the effects. The patient is also taught how to form healthy, new relationships. This happens in a series of visits with the therapist over the course of three to five months. The overall goal of the therapy is to reduce the symptoms of depression and improve social relationships. Interpersonal psychotherapy is a relatively new form of treatment, and it is sometimes combined with other treatments such as the use of antidepressant medications. |
