The answer to our Practice Question of the week is ... C! Interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) is a manualized psychotherapy first designed for the treatment of nonbipolar, nonpsychotic major depression with the focus on the problems of depression and interpersonal distress. IPT focuses on interpersonal aspects of depression and uses the biopsychosocial model, which frames depression as a medical illness occurring in a social context. The goal of IPT is to alleviate symptoms with interpersonal relationships as a point of intervention. Well be back next Wednesday with another Academic Review Practice Question!
