Sammanfattning
Depression is a well-known co-morbidity of cancer. A possible intervention for depression is psychological treatment defined as
psychotherapy provided by a psychologist. In this narrative review we investigated the effect of psychological treatment on depression for
patients with cancer. Six Cochrane reviews of 38 studies investigating psychological or psychosocial interventions were reviewed. One of the
38 studies could not be assessed. None of the included studies investigated psychological treatment for patients who were diagnosed with
depression or included because of depression symptoms.
