Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a manualised, multimodal group psychotherapy, based on integrative psychotherapy (IPT) and tailored to somatoform vertigo/dizziness (SVD) subgroups of mental disorders, compared to self-help groups (SHGs) in patients with SVD. The investigators hypothesise that patients who received IPT will demonstrate greater improvement concerning their vertigo-related handicap compared to patients from the SHGs. The investigators will also analyse the cost-effectiveness of experimental and control intervention.
