An Open Trial of a New Acceptance-Based Behavioral Treatment for Major Depression With Psychotic Features
Overview
This paper describes an open trial of Acceptance-Based Depression and Psychosis Therapy (ADAPT), a behavioral intervention combining acceptance and commitment therapy with behavioral activation for major depression with psychotic features. The study involved fourteen patients receiving up to six months of ADAPT alongside pharmacotherapy, reporting high treatment acceptability and sustained improvements in depressive and psychotic symptoms. It highlights that changes in targeted processes like mindfulness and values correlated with symptom reduction, suggesting the approach warrants further testing in randomized trials.
