Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2023
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of psychodramatic psychotherapy in reducing the psychological distress and/or the skin condition in patients with vitiligo. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is there any improvement in terms of psychological distress in patients with vitiligo participating in a psychodramatic psychotherapy, compared to a control group? 2. Is there any improvement in terms of skin condition in patients with vitiligo participating in a psychodramatic psychotherapy, compared to a control group? Participants in the experimental group will receive the dermatological drug treatment usually recommended for vitiligo, and in addition they will participate in a 6 months psychodramatic psychotherapy. Researchers will compare the results of the experimental group with the results of a control group including vitiligo patients who will receive the dermatological pharmacological treatment usually recommended for vitiligo and participate in a 6 months program of self-help activities.
