Abstract
The current study intends to investigate the efficacy of culturally adapted cognitive behavioral therapy intervention for postpartum depression among Pakistani women. According to earlier research, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is the primary psychological treatment strategy for depression, and it is a successful approach for treating postpartum depression. The present study used a quasi-experimental research design to examine the effectiveness of CBT for postpartum depression (PPD). The sample consisted of postpartum women who were recruited from hospitals and maternity clinics via self-report measures, such as the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and Depressive Cognition Scale. The effectiveness of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in treating postpartum depression is being further supported by the findings of this study in the Pakistani cultural context. To enhance the effectiveness of the therapy sessions, it is recommended that future studies include the involvement of partners and family members in the intervention.
