Cognitive Therapy

Cognitive therapy, pioneered by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, is a structured approach to addressing psychological distress by focusing on the influence of thoughts on emotions and behaviors.

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

Cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBTs) are grounded in the belief that our thoughts profoundly influence our emotions and actions.

Psychosis: Goals of Pharmacotherapy

Antipsychotic drugs are a crucial treatment method for acute and chronic psychoses, bipolar illness, and behavioral disorders. The selection of these drugs depends on several factors, including the state of the disease, clinical judgment, possible drug interactions, and the patient's sensitivity to adverse effects. In immediate scenarios, such as delirium and dementia, short-term treatment with low doses of high-potency typical or atypical agents can effectively manage symptom exacerbation. For...

Background:

  • Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) poses a significant clinical challenge.
  • Existing pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy options have limitations for some patients.
  • The role of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) in TRD management is evolving.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent advancements in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for treatment-resistant depression (TRD).
  • To evaluate the efficacy of both traditional and novel CBT interventions in TRD.
  • To consider CBT as a potential first-step treatment for depressive disorders.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent studies on CBT for TRD.
  • Inclusion of both
  • classical
  • and
  • new generation
  • CBT approaches.
  • Revision of the Japanese algorithm to incorporate CBT as a primary treatment option.

Main Results:

  • Classical
  • CBT demonstrated varied efficacy, sometimes comparable to pharmacotherapy or beneficial in combination strategies.
  • Recent Japanese research indicated positive effects of group CBT on depressive symptoms and social functioning in TRD.
  • Newer CBT forms like CBASP, DBT, and MBCT showed efficacy in improving depressive symptoms and patient acceptability.

Conclusions:

  • Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) presents a promising therapeutic avenue for TRD.
  • CBT, including newer modalities, is a viable option for managing treatment-resistant depression.
  • The findings support considering CBT as an initial treatment for all depressive disorders, including TRD.
