- PTSD, and depression in the context of medical illness.
- Led by IPT Leaders with Decades of Expertise: Your instructors, Dr. Ronald Frey and Cindy Goodman Stulberg, bring nearly 60 years of combined clinical excellence. They’ve trained professionals across Canada, the U.S., and Europe, and their sessions receive great reviews from mental health clinicians.

FEELING BETTER Beat Depression and Improve relationships with Interpersonal Psychotherapy.
| Improve Outcomes with Interpersonal Psychotherapy |
| Uncover the clinical applications of IPT and its potential to improve patient outcomes in the Discover IPT program beginning October 25, 2025. |
| IPT is especially helpful for patients whose stressful, interpersonal life events are associated with illness onset. These include loss or grief, life changes in social roles, conflicts in close relationships, and interpersonal sensitivities or loneliness. |
| Learn how to implement this affect-focused, evidence-based approach and use relational theories of attachment and mentalizing in treating depression and mood disorders. |
This combination of in-person and interactive, online training introduces the theoretical foundations and clinical guidelines for helping patients with depression in the contexts of universal, commonly occurring relational life events that are often associated with the onset or worsening of symptoms. With an emphasis on case-based learning and formative feedback, learners will develop skills to confidently implement IPT in their own practices through a live in person workshop, 3 live webinars and self-directed e-modules.
Learning Objectives
- Describe IPT phase- and focus-specific therapeutic guidelines for case formulation and for credentialed practitioners, to work through and help patients to cope with relational life events of loss, change, conflict and isolation that are associated with the onset or worsening of depression
- Use the IPT tasks of conducting interpersonal inventories and communication analyses to reflect with patients on their relationships, and discover ways to improve reciprocity and interpersonal effectiveness in relationships
- Appreciate and therapeutically respond to individual patient differences, e.g., in attachment patterns of relating and culture
