Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major burden for the affected patients, who are continuously struggling with the hallmark symptoms breathlessness, cough, and sputum together with high levels of anxiety and depression and impairment of quality of life (QoL). The potential value of complementary interventions in COPD has long been recognised, yet so far, no overall significant effects of psychosocial intervention programs such as cognitive behavioural therapy or supportive/analytical psychotherapy have been found.
