  • Title: [The future of psychotherapy in psychosomatic medicine].
    Author: Beutel ME, Kruse J, Michal M, Herzog W.
    Journal: Z Psychosom Med Psychother; 2013; 59(1):33-50. PubMed ID: 23467996.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To review the current perspectives and trends of psychotherapy as a key area of psychosomatic medicine with regard to both societal and scientific challenges as well as patient health care services. Also, to draw conclusions regarding the future training and practice of psychosomatic medicine and psychotherapy. RESULTS: Psychotherapy is confronted with many new challenges because of the high prevalence of mental and psychosomatic disorders, because of their increasing recognition as major health problems and because of the rapid technological and demographic changes going on in modern society. Despite its growth, psychotherapeutic care is still limited in many, especially rural, regions and for patients with complex psychosomatic and somatopsychic disorders. CONCLUSIONS: New models of training as well as integrated and multimodal care are needed in order to provide both, rapid, low-threshold and specialized, disorder-specific care.
