Interpersonal Therapy is typically structured into several phases, each focusing on different aspects of interpersonal relationships and emotional well-being.
IPT follows three distinct phases to guide you toward emotional recovery.
Interpersonal Therapy targets specific areas that are often at the core of emotional distress:
Addressing the impact of significant losses and helping individuals navigate the grieving process.
Assisting in adapting to new life roles, whether personal or professional, and managing the stress that comes with these changes.
Working through conflicts in relationships to improve communication and resolve disputes effectively.
