ABOUT THE VIDEO

In Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Older Adults With Depression, Gregory A. Hinrichsen demonstrates his approach to working with older clients suffering with this common disorder. Interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) is a time-limited therapy that has been found to be effective in the treatment of depression in different age groups, including older adults. IPT focuses on one or two interpersonally relevant problems including interpersonal role disputes, role transitions, grief, and interpersonal deficits.

In this session, Dr. Hinrichsen works with a 77-year-old woman who recently lost her husband following a long period of caregiving during which one of her sons died. Despite the presence of many depressive symptoms, the client is unaware that she has a major depression. Dr. Hinrichsen demonstrates effectively the process of interpersonal psychotherapy as he helps the client to understand depression, its precipitants, and the path to improvement.

ABOUT THE APPROACH

Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) is a time-limited psychotherapy that has been found to be effective in the treatment of depression. IPT is based on theory and research that have demonstrated that interpersonally relevant issues often precede the onset of depression and that depression itself may seed interpersonal difficulties.
