IPT for Depression

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) for depression is a structured, time-limited treatment that focuses on improving personal relationships and social skills. It recognizes that our connections with others can significantly impact our mood. IPT helps patients identify specific interpersonal issues, such as grief, role changes, or conflicts, that may contribute to their depression. Through guided discussions, patients learn to communicate better, resolve conflicts, and build stronger support networks. The goal is to reduce symptoms of depression by enhancing social interactions and fostering a better understanding of how relationships influence emotional well-being.
