Brief structured attachment-focused therapies for people with mild to moderate depression. These therapies are based on the idea that difficulties interacting with other people can cause psychological symptoms such as depressed mood, which then make the difficulties with interaction worse, causing a cycle. Interpersonal therapies aim to help people interact more effectively with others, and through this improve the psychological symptoms. Therapy typically focuses on relationship issues such as conflict, difficulty starting or maintaining relationships, grief and loss, and life changes.
