Abstract

Objectives: The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the educational package based on God-Oriented Spiritual Multidimensional Psychotherapy on reducing Clinical Symptoms resulting from Romantic Breakdown.

Methods: This experimental study used a Single-Subject Design with Multiple-Baseline Design and included a three-month follow-up. The population comprised clients suffering from Romantic Breakdown who referred to the Aramesh Counseling Center in the city of Qom in 1403. Three individuals who met the inclusion criteria were selected by Purposeful sampling. Each participant received a randomly assigned baseline phase of between 3 and 7 weeks, followed by an individual intervention delivered in 14 sessions of 60 minutes. Outcomes were measured with the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (DASS-21) and the Love Trauma Inventory (LTI). Visual Analysis was applied for Within-Condition Analysis and Between-Condition Analysis to assess statistical significance, and Effect Size (ES) was calculated to examine clinical significance.

Findings: Clients’ Clinical Symptoms shifted from a severe state with an increasing and stable trend in the baseline to a mild state with a decreasing and stable trend during the intervention, and these improvements persisted at follow-up. Effect Size (ES) indices MBLR, PND and POD were favorable; notably, all clients’ scores on the PND index for the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (DASS-21) exceeded 71.85 percent, indicating the educational package was highly effective.

Conclusion: The educational package based on God-Oriented Spiritual Multidimensional Psychotherapy effectively reduces Clinical Symptoms resulting from Romantic Breakdown and can be employed in psychological services for affected individuals in clinical settings.
