Interpersonal Psychotherapy

Interpersonal Psychotherapy

Interpersonal Psychotherapy is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on improving your relationships with others or deal with issues arising within the context of relationships (including family, friends, work related and intimate relationships). 

Interpersonal psychotherapy has been shown to be effective in treating depression and other mental health conditions but can also be adapted to working with other everyday issues (such as relationship issues, work related stress, social issues).

Interpersonal Psychotherapy recognises that mental health issues can be linked to problems in relationships, social interactions and social support.

Interpersonal psychotherapy can assist individuals to manage loss and grief, adjusting to significant life changes (such as divorce, retirement or job loss), resolving conflicts in relationships and addressing difficulties in forming or maintaining relationships.
