Interpersonal Therapy Assessment/Evidence
Method evidence record

Interpersonal Therapy Assessment

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) assessment is a structured evaluation of the client's current symptoms and their interpersonal context to identify one or more core interpersonal problems (grief, disputes, role transitions, or interpersonal deficits) maintaining the client's psychological distress. Developed by Gerald Klerman and Myrna Weissman in the 1980s, IPT assessment forms the foundation for this evidence-based time-limited psychotherapy.
