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 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 examples that help with implementing the approach in practice.Less

This chapter contextualizes the development of DIT in the climate of evidence-based practice, which has been broadly hostile to psychodynamic interventions. It outlines the rationale for the development of this protocol in the work on developing competence frameworks and the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies initiative in the UK. Finally, it reviews its theoretical origins in attachment theory, object relations theory, and Harry Stack Sullivan's interpersonal psychoanalysis.Less

Therapygenetics refers to the prediction of psychological therapy outcomes from genetic markers. The rationale for this research derives from the gene–environment interaction literature, which has shown that individual differences in susceptibility to the environment are at least partly due to genetic variation for a wide range of phenotypes. While initially framed within the context of the diathesis-stress model, this idea has since been developed in a number of ways. Most notably, some genetic markers that place an individual at risk of a poor outcome following a stressful event may reflect environmental susceptibility markers, and thus may also enhance the likelihood of an individual benefiting from a positive environment, including psychological intervention. This chapter reviews the current evidence from candidate gene and genome-wide association studies that genetic factors can explain individual differences in response to psychological therapy. As this is a field in its infancy, future directions and opportunities are outlined. Following an initial discussion on the need to move toward a “therapygenomics” approach utilizing genome-wide methodologies, the importance of identifying mechanisms underlying associations between genes and psychological therapy outcomes is outlined. Finally, the possible future clinical implications of therapygenetics work, both scientific and ethical, are considered.Less

This book presents an early psychoanalyst's session-by-session notes on a case of hysteria caused by severe sexual trauma and incest, offering a vivid portrait of psychoanalytic practice in the second decade of the twentieth century. Accompanying these notes are insightful commentaries by Elizabeth Lunbeck and Bennett Simon that situate the case historically and throw light on the many difficulties that both analyst and patient encountered in the treatment.Less
