The Current Literature on Inpatient Psychotherapy
Abstract
In a review of the current literature on inpatient psychotherapy, the authors discuss shortened length of stay and the interdisciplinary team approach as factors affecting psychotherapy in the inpatient setting. They examine the literature in the frameworks of long-term intensive and short-term focused psychotherapy, including arguments presented in favor of each. Much of the current literature focuses on special problems posed by patients who have severe personality disorders and are treated by long-term inpatient care with intensive psychotherapy.
