Compassion-based therapy was administered according to the protocol of Paul Gilbert and Russell Colts (translated by Esbati, 2017) on the experimental group in eight 90-minute sessions with a frequency of two sessions per week. Data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance. Results: The results of multivariate covariance analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the two groups, and compassion therapy increased distress tolerance and improved relationship beliefs of women with substance-dependent spouses.
