Abstract
Untreated postpartum mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) place women and their families at risk for negative biopsychosocial sequelae. Innovative and tailored treatments are needed to address potential disruptions in maternal functioning. Third-wave cognitive-behavioral approaches, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), hold promise for optimizing functioning given the focus on values-based living, rather than symptom reduction.
The purpose of this paper is to describe the development of an innovative psychotherapy group for women with symptoms of PMADs.
This seven-session group,
, includes selected skills training from ACT, DBT, and Emotion-Centered Problem-Solving Therapy.
group sessions are described, and an outline of key information (session goals, content, and homework assignments) is provided to facilitate practical implementation.
In line with third-wave approaches, this group was developed to enhance maternal functioning, which, in turn, may help women cope with psychological distress during the transition to motherhood.
