Interpersonal therapy (IPT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on improving interpersonal relationships and communication skills. It is based on the idea that personal relationships are central to psychological well-being and that improving these relationships can help alleviate symptoms of mental health issues.
IPT is typically used to treat depression, but it can also be effective for other conditions, such as anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and substance abuse. The therapy is usually short-term and structured, lasting about 12 to 16 weeks, with sessions typically held once a week.
In IPT, the therapist helps the individual identify specific interpersonal problems or conflicts that may be contributing to their symptoms. The therapist then works with the individual to develop strategies for addressing these issues and improving their relationships. IPT focuses on four main areas:
