Aim: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of psychotherapy based on improving quality of life on anxiety and quality of life in women with vitiligo.
Method: The study employed a quasi-experimental design. The statistical population included all women with vitiligo referred to the Isfahan Dermatology and Leishmaniasis Research Center. From this population, 20 women were selected through available sampling and randomly assigned to either an experimental or control group (10 participants per group). Both groups completed the Beck Anxiety Inventory (1988) and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (2004) as pre-tests. After the experimental group completed eight sessions of psychotherapy focused on improving quality of life (one 90-minute session per week for eight weeks), post-tests were administered to both groups immediately and again one month later. The collected data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance via SPSS.23 software.
Results: The results of repeated measures analysis of variance indicated that psychotherapy focused on improving quality of life significantly reduced anxiety scores and increased the quality of life in women with vitiligo.
Conclusion: Given that psychotherapy based on improving quality of life positively affects anxiety and quality of life in women with vitiligo, teaching this therapeutic approach is recommended as an effective intervention to reduce anxiety and enhance the quality of life in this population.
