CBP

Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy

Interpersonal Psychotherapy or IPT, is a short-term, focused treatment for depression. Studies have shown that IPT, which addresses interpersonal issues, may be at least as effective as short-term treatment with antidepressants for moderate to severe depression.  It is effective in treating depression in young people. 

It is a collaborative therapy, supporting clients to link mood with interpersonal contacts, understand attachment and recognise that by appropriately addressing interpersonal situations they can improve relationships and depressive moods to reduce the symptoms of depression. The main area of treatment are:

• Complex grief

• Life and role transition

• Difficulty in forming and maintaining relationships

• Conflicts and disputes in one or more relationships

A comprehensive relapse plan will be also be completed to keep for future reference.
