抑郁症患者在短程动力性人际治疗中治疗体验的定性研究OACHSSCD

Objective:To explore the subjective treatment experience of patients with major depressive disor-der receiving short-term dynamic interpersonal therapy(DIT).Methods:Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 patients with depression who completed 16-week DIT.Thematic analysis was used to extract themes related to patients'experiences during treatment.Results:Patients reported four main areas of change during DIT:increased awareness and regulation ability of their own interpersonal patterns,enhanced ability to recognize and integrate emo-tions,development of reflective ability,and improvement in depressive symptoms and functions.The perceived ther-apeutic mechanisms included a focus on their maladaptive interpersonal patterns,training in emotional awareness and expression,and promoting the understanding of the psychological processes of oneself and others in a safe ther-apeutic relationship.Conclusion:Therapeutic effects of DIT for depression may extend beyond symptom allevia-tion,with preliminary evidence suggesting its potential value in enhancing patients'awareness of interpersonal pat-terns,emotional integration,and reflective functioning.The intervention strategy may facilitate therapeutic changes by employing emotion recognition,emotion integration training,and mentalization techniques.
