This is the second in a two-part series on psychotherapy for depression.
Considering depression as a spectrum phenomenon, the author goes beyond
manual-based diagnosis to suggest criteria for the use of psychodynamic,
cognitive, or interpersonal psychotherapy, with or without pharmacotherapy.
He proposes a clinical model that is both integrative and selective and
recommends shifting and sharing different therapeutic perspectives in
tailoring treatment to the depressed individual.Abstract Teaser
