Participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention group, which received Positive Psychotherapy, or a control group that received no therapeutic intervention. The intervention consisted of ten 90-minute sessions focusing on communication skills, emotional regulation, and spiritual enhancement. Data were collected using standardized measures for marital conflicts and spiritual wellbeing, and analyzed using ANOVA with repeated measures and Bonferroni post-hoc tests.</p> <p><strong>Findings: </strong>Results indicated significant improvements in both marital conflicts and spiritual wellbeing for the intervention group compared to the control group. Specifically, the intervention group reported lower marital conflicts (Mean = 2.34, SD = 0.45) compared to the control group (Mean = 3.76, SD = 0.39) with a significant group effect (F(1, 38) = 28.53, p &lt; 0.001). Additionally, spiritual wellbeing scores were higher in the intervention group (Mean = 4.28, SD = 0.33) versus the control group (Mean = 3.22, SD = 0.36) with a significant group effect (F(1, 38) = 24.11, p &lt; 0.001).</p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Positive Psychotherapy was effective in significantly reducing marital conflicts and enhancing spiritual wellbeing among women with marital conflicts.
