Product Description
Published USA, 2007
This book is a practical guide for busy clinicians who want to learn Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT). Initially developed as a treatment for major depression, IPT has proven highly effective as a therapy for a number of other disorders. Written by the originators of the treatment, this practical book describes how to approach clinical encounters with patients, how to focus IPT treatment, and ways to handle therapeutic difficulties. The book updates research findings on IPT and addresses its adaptation to different cultures. Complete with clinical examples and sample therapist scripts throughout, this guide forgoes the theoretical and empirical background of IPT and focuses on teaching the best way to deliver treatment.
Myrna Weissman is Professor of Epidemiology and Psychiatry at New York State Psychiatric Institute. John Markowitz is a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Medical College of Cornell University. The late Gerald Klerman was Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard School of Medicine.
