This CE course will help mental health clinicians gain an understanding about Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), an evidenced based practice proven to be helpful in treating Depressive Disorders, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Social Phobia and some Eating Disorders. The CE course will review the research and theory underlying IPT. Then participants will receive a description of the interventions utilized in the initial, middle, end and maintenance phases of IPT.
