ZANIN, Carla Rodrigues  e  VALERIO, Nelson Iguimar. Cognitive behavior therapy for dependent personality disorder: a case report. Rev. bras. ter. comport. cogn. [online]. 2004, vol.6, n.1, pp.81-92. ISSN 1517-5545.

This paper reports a case of Dependent Personality Disorder (DPD) treated with Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT). A 24 years old female college student was treated with 24 sessions of CBT, which included the use of interviews, the Beck Depression Inventory, the Trait State Anxiety Inventory and CBT techniques. The patient’s main complaints, history, data about family functioning, treatment plans and patients motivation regarding treatment, dysfunctional beliefs about diagnosis, coping strategies and autonomy training were discussed during treatment. The main results of the treatment were an important reduction on DPD and depression symptoms, and the development of a behavioral and cognitive repertoire which improved her psychosocial functioning. The use of CBT on the management of DPD, the comorbidity of DPD and depression e the positive results of the treatment support the current literature about the problem.
