Zusammenfassung
Unter den zur Zeit vorliegenden Kurzzeitpsychotherapieverfahren zur Behandlung einer
Depression ist die IPT nach Klerman u. Mitarb. mit 16 - 20 Therapiesitzungen mittlerweile
umfassend in der klinischen Praxis etabliert und in ihrer Wirksamkeit in einer Anzahl
von Studien belegt. Die IPT begründet sich auf dem interpersonalen Ansatz der Psychiatrie,
dem die Hypothese zugrunde liegt, dass sich psychiatrische Erkrankungen und hier Depressionen
im interpersonellen Kontext entwickeln: Zwischenmenschliche Probleme können zum Ausbruch
und zur Aufrechterhaltung einer depressiven Episode beitragen bzw. durch die Depression
bewirkt werden. Durch die Verbesserung des interpersonellen Funktionsniveaus des depressiven
Patienten innerhalb der IPT wird die Genesung aus der depressiven Phase und Lösung
eines wichtigen aktuellen interpersonellen Problems gebahnt.
Abstract
Among the forms of short-term psychotherapies for the treatment of depression, IPT
(16 - 20 sessions) by Klerman u. Mitarb. is meanwhile one of the most well known and
clinically practiced approaches. IPT has also been carefully controlled in a variety
of studies proving efficacy. Interpersonal psychotherapy is based on the ideas of
the interpersonal school of psychiatry. The hypothesis is that psychiatric illnesses
and here depression develop in an interpersonal context. Life problems may contribute
to onset and potentially chronicity of (current) depression and vice versa. By enhancing
interpersonal functioning of the depressed patient IPT initiates the reduction of
depressive symptomatology and helps solving of current life problems as dual goal
of therapy.
