Human beings are inherently social creatures. From the moment we are born, our connections with others shape who we are, how we feel, and how we navigate the world. Relationships are not merely a luxury or a source of comfort—they are fundamental to our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. The bonds we form, whether with family, friends, romantic partners, or our broader community, are critical to our sense of self and our ability to thrive.

Interpersonal therapy (IPT) recognizes the central role that relationships play in our lives. Unlike other therapeutic approaches that may focus primarily on individual cognition or behavior, IPT places relationships at the heart of healing. It understands that many psychological struggles do not arise in isolation but rather stem from disruptions or difficulties in our interactions with others. Whether it is a conflict with a loved one, the pain of losing someone dear, or the struggle to adapt to a major life transition, these challenges can deeply impact our emotional health.

The foundation of IPT lies in the belief that by addressing these relational difficulties, we can foster profound healing and personal growth. This approach is not about blaming others for our problems but about understanding how our interactions influence our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is about recognizing patterns, improving communication, and building healthier connections. By focusing on the here and now of our relationships, IPT provides a practical and focused framework for change.
