La psychothérapie interpersonnelle (PTI) est une psychothérapie de courte durée fondée sur la théorie de l’attachement. Partant de l’idée que la détresse interpersonnelle a un lien étroit avec les symptômes psychiatriques et la souffrance psychologique générale, elle a pour objectif d’aider les patients à optimiser leurs relations et à faire appel au soutien affectif et pratique dont ils ont besoin pour mieux gérer leur détresse. Elle est particulièrement adaptée pour le traitement des dépressions du post-partum. La PTI se distingue ainsi des traitements cognitivo-comportementaux (TCC), centrés principalement sur les schémas cognitifs du patient, et des thérapies psychanalytiques où l’intérêt est avant tout porté sur les origines précoces du fonctionnement psychique. En effet, la PTI se concentre avant tout sur les interactions de l’individu avec les autres, à tous les niveaux de son réseau social. Elle se propose d’aider le patient à améliorer sa communication et son soutien social dans le présent. Ce guide méthodologique et clinique rend la psychothérapie interpersonnelle accessible aux professionnels désireux de la pratiquer.

Six billion people in the world, six billion different opinions of how the world is viewed out of ones own environment. Steves environment is not much different than a lot of others, except for the fact that by the age of five he had already experienced two heart attacks, and by age ten, he had one of the very first open-heart surgeries in the United States. When he entered his teenage years, he became a full-blown alcoholic before he turned fourteen years of age. This coupled with other dysfunctional problems was probably the reason Steve was granted a suspended ten-year prison sentence around his eighteenth birthday. What makes this authors poems so unique is the fact that when he retired from the California Department of Corrections, he was a chartered member of their crisis response team, holding the position of primary negotiator. The poems in this book are a reflection of how this author viewed his world in his environments of dysfunction and success.
