Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)

Cultivating connection with care.

At The Kuaya in Kuala Lumpur, interpersonal therapy offers a gentle, evidence-based way to ease symptoms and strengthen the bonds that hold life together. Sessions are welcoming, unrushed, and private, shaped around your story and the people who matter most.

Understanding Interpersonal Therapy

Often called IPT, interpersonal therapy focuses on the here-and-now of how you relate to others. Together we look at grief, role changes, conflict, and isolation, then translate insight into everyday skills—clearer language, firmer boundaries, and new patterns that improve relationships.

How It Works

In a structured yet human process—assessment, goals, focused work, and review—IPT turns awareness into action. In private sessions, your therapist may use role-play, communication scripts, and between-session experiments to help you repair after conflict, ask for support, and improve relationships at home and at work.

Our Approach

We tailor pace and length to your needs—brief pathways for a single concern or extended support when life is complex. Your clinician coordinates with other providers only at your request. With interpersonal therapy, our team blends clinical rigour with warmth to help you build trust, reset patterns, and improve relationships that last.

Who It is For

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) supports adolescents and adults navigating bereavement, role transitions, break-ups, workplace tension, or loneliness. It also complements medication or other therapies when relationship stress amplifies symptoms.

Take the First Step

Begin with a thoughtful consultation. You’ll leave with a clear focus, a shared plan, and one or two practices to try before your next session.
