ABSTRACT
Objectives:
The aim of this clinical trial was to explore whether psychodynamic-interactional therapy leads to a better outcome in the treatment of somatoform pain disorders when combined with body therapy.Methods:
30 patients diagnosed with this disorder took part in outpatient group therapies with 25 sessions. In the intervention condition, sessions based on psychodynamic-interactional and body therapy took place in weekly change, while in the control condition all sessions were based on psychodynamic-interactional therapy. Data were collected with self-report measures at the beginning and end of therapy and at the 6-months follow-up.Results:
Under both conditions somatic and psychological symptoms merely remained stable from the first to the third measurement time. However, patients expressed a high level of satisfaction with the relationships in the group.Conclusions:
Contrary to the assumptions, the two therapy conditions did not differ in the treatment outcome. Both conditions proved successful in providing patients with supporting interpersonal experiences.Palavras-chave
