Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) is a brief psychodynamic psychotherapy developed for the treatment of mood disorders. It is being rolled out as part of the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) initiative as the psychodynamic model for the treatment of depression.

This book is a user-friendly, practical guide for the implementation of a brief psychodynamic intervention in routine clinical practice as well as in research protocols. It sets out clearly the theoretical framework, as well as the rationale and strategies for applying DIT with patients presenting with mood disorders (depression and anxiety). Throughout, it is illustrated with detailed examples that help the reader to implement the approach in their practice.

The book will be required reading to support the national IAPT training initiative, as well as providing a resource for mental health professionals specialising in psychodynamic psychotherapy and wishing to work within a limited time frame.

Industry Reviews

The Oxford Handbook of Chinese Psychology is a massive collection of perspectives between two hard covers. It is hardly vacation reading, but its perusal can offer the interculturalist a couple of benefits. First, it provides a perspective on what is happening in psychological research that both reflects intercultural theory and perhaps challenges it and may add to it Brief Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy: A Clinician's Guide is essential reading for mental health professionals who wish to continue to work psychodynamically in the public health sector. It is an impressive and accessible protocol and, as such, is to be highly recommended to neuroscientists and psychodynamic psychotherapists alike who attempt to treat patients with mood disorders-anywhere in the world. * Neuropsychoanalysis *
