Problems and disorders of married life have negative consequences for the mental and physical health of spouses. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of admission-based therapy on depression and chronic pain in abused women in Gorgan. This experimental study performed based on a pretest-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population included all abused women who had a case in the Welfare Office and referred to the Gorgan Safe-House Center. From among them, 30 people selected by the available sampling method, and divided into two groups of 15 people by simple random method. The research instruments were Beck Depression Inventory by Beck, Steer, and Garbin (1988), and Chronic Pain Questionnaire by Van Korf (Smith and Riff, 1997). The experimental group received a weekly training program based on acceptance and commitment based on 8 sessions of 2 hours and the control group did not receive any intervention until the end of the study. The data of the present study analyzed by analysis of covariance. Findings showed that acceptance and commitment treatment is effective on depression and chronic pain in abused women (0.001). Based on the results obtained, treatment based on acceptance and commitment can reduce depression and chronic pain in abused spouses.
