TY - JOUR PY - 2020// TI - Psychotherapy for mixed depression and mixed mania JO - Psychiatric clinics of North America A1 - O'Brien, Brittany A1 - Lee, Delphine A1 - Swann, Alan C. A1 - Mathew, Sanjay J. A1 - Lijffijt, Marijn SP - 199 EP - 211 VL - 43 IS - 1 N2 - Treatment guidelines for mixed states of depression or (hypo)mania focus almost exclusively on psychopharmacologic intervention without tapping into the benefits of psychotherapy. The authors highlight the complex clinical picture and illness course of mixed states, and discuss the benefit of taking a patient-centered approach to treatment incorporating techniques from a variety of evidence-based psychotherapies. A careful assessment of suicide risk as well as interventions designed specifically for anxiety are also recommended.
