In this course you will learn how to provide effective IPT treatment to patients with major depression. IPT is a brief, time limited evidence-based treatment with over 40 years of research supporting its efficacy for depression. It is one of the psychotherapies recommended for the treatment of major depression by the American Psychiatric Association and the Guidelines for Primary Care Physicians. It focuses on understanding the interpersonal and social context in which the person’s symptoms arose. It focuses on feelings, validating them in the context of social situations, and helping the patient to understand and use those feelings to change interpersonal encounters.
We hope this course will expand the range of your clinical skills and the treatment options available to your patients. A certificate of completion and CE credits are provided.
The cost of the course is $39.99.
