Given the emotional and psychological challenges faced by mothers of children with special needs, their psychological well-being and resilience may be diminished. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of narrative therapy on the psychological well-being and resilience of mothers of children with special needs in Bonab, Iran. This quasi-experimental study employed a pre-test and post-test control group design. The statistical population included mothers of children with special needs in Bonab, from whom 40 individuals were selected via convenience sampling and randomly assigned to either an experimental or a control group. The experimental group received 10 sessions of narrative therapy, while the control group received no intervention. The instruments included the Ryff's Psychological Well-Being Scale (1989) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (2003). Data were analyzed using analysis of variance. The results showed that narrative therapy significantly increased psychological well-being and resilience in the experimental group. Based on the findings, narrative therapy can be used as an effective method to support mothers of children with special needs, improving their resilience and promoting their psychological well-being.
