The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of integrative psychotherapy, spiritual therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy on distress in patients with breast cancer. To this end, through semi-experimental research with pretest-posttest, control group, and follow-up process, 60 women with breast cancer in Shohadaye Tajrish Hospital in Tehran were selected using in access sampling method and were randomly assigned into three experimental and one control groups. The groups were tested before and after the intervention with the Kessler psychological distress scale (K10). Group therapy sessions were separately held for all three groups once a week for eight 90-minute sessions. The control group received no intervention. After finishing the study and two months later, the groups were reexamined by the Kessler psychological distress scale. The results of multivariate covariance analysis showed that integrative psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and spiritual therapy could reduce distress in patients under therapy, and their effect was sustained in the follow-up test. These therapies, in addition to other interventions such as medication therapy and medical interventions, seem to be effective in reducing distress in patients with breast cancer.
