Preventing Adolescent Depression Summary

Preventing Adolescent Depression: Interpersonal Psychotherapy-Adolescent Skills Training by Jami F. Young (Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology, Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology, Rutgers University)

Interpersonal Psychotherapy-Adolescent Skills Training (IPT-AST) is a program that teaches communication and interpersonal problem-solving skills to improve relationships and prevent the development of depression in adolescents. IPT-AST was developed to be delivered in schools and other community settings where adolescents are most likely to receive services, with the hope that IPT-AST can help prevent depression and other problem behaviors before they become more severe. Preventing Adolescent Depression: Interpersonal Psychotherapy-Adolescent Skills Training provides a detailed description of the program to guide mental health practitioners to implement IPT-AST. Session-by-session descriptions specify the structure and content of each session. Examples of how group leaders can discuss specific topics are provided throughout the book, and the appendix includes session outlines, communication notecards, cue cards, and more. Chapters also outline key issues related to implementation of IPT-AST, including selecting adolescents to participate in group; conducting IPT-AST in schools, primary care offices, mental health clinics, and other diverse settings; working with adolescents at varying levels of risk for depression; and dealing with common clinical issues. Finally, the book outlines the research on this depression prevention program. Preventing Adolescent Depression is appropriate for a wide variety of mental health practitioners including psychologists, social workers, and school counselors.

Preventing Adolescent Depression Reviews

"Young and colleagues have built on the impressive evidence base for IPT treatment of adolescent depression to create a brief, empirically supported depression prevention program. The focus on interpersonal relations in the IPT model is intuitively appealing to many adolescents at risk for depression, which increases engagement. This well-written and practical book provides the reader with all she or he needs to deliver the intervention." --Paul Rohde, PhD, Senior Research Scientist, Oregon Research Institute "This stellar guide, written by the leaders in the field and the developers of IPT-AST, provides an insightful, clear rationale for the significance of the problem, treatment model, and then step-by-step instructions on how to implement interpersonal therapy skills to prevent adolescent depression. This volume is especially helpful as IPT-AST is grounded in theory, research, and years of clinical experience with adolescents... Helpful, detailed session outlines and important handouts alongside descriptive case vignettes provide the reader with clear examples of how IPT-AST can be implemented in an effective manner for clinicians of varying experience levels." --Benjamin L. Hankin, PhD, Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Denver "This thorough, go-to guide for conducting IPT-AST depression prevention sessions is a must-have reference for any mental health professionals who work with adolescents at risk for depression. I highly recommend this timely and important book for its significance to the field and for taking a bold new step in the direction of depression prevention for adolescents." -Doodys Health Science "a comprehensive manual that provides detailed information about the rationale for IPT-AST and a clear framework for administering the intervention. This manual will be of interest to a range of readers, including mental References health professionals, teachers, and school counselors." -- PsycCRITIQUES (February 2017)
