- Description
- Key Messages: 1. Postnatal women preferred psychotherapy to pharmacotherapy for reduction of postnatal depression. ; 2. A brief, cognitive-behavioural, group intervention with 6 weekly sessions significantly reduced depressive symptoms and was well received by postnatal women. ; 3. This brief group intervention could be further tested as an integral part of postnatal care to complement existing services and reduce waiting time.
