title: [The psychosomatic interview in diagnosis of functional voice disorders].
abstract: For the psychosomatic diagnosis of functional voice disorders, the concept of a semistructured psychosomatic interview is presented which follows the principles of psychoanalytic interviewing and of deep-psychological biographical anamnesis. It also takes into account the special features of dysphonic patients as psychosomatic patients, the characteristics of functional voice disorders, and the interrelationship of voice and psychosocial biography. The psychosomatic interview consists of the components interviewing situation, voice symptomatology and voice genesis, psychosocial biographical anamnesis and indication to psychotherapy. Beginning and end of the interview are fixed, whereas in the further course the selection of elements is fitted to the conflict constellations of the patient.
