روش: روش پژوهش نیمه‌ آزمایشی با طرح پیش‌آزمون – پس‌آزمون و گروه گواه بود. جامعه آماری شامل زوجین مراجعه کننده به مرکز مشاوره شهر تهران در سال 1396 بودند. از بین 31 زوج مراجعه کننده، 20 زوج (40 نفر) با توجه به نتایج پرسش‌نامه سازش یافتگی زوجی اسپنیر(1976) با خط برش 101، به روش نمونه گیری در دسترس انتخاب و به گونه تصادفی در دو گروه آزمایش و گواه جایگزین شدند. گروه آزمایش به صورت منظم در 9 جلسه 90 دقیقه‌ای، هفته‌ای یک جلسه تحت درمان متمرکز بر هیجان قرار گرفت.  داده های این پژوهش به کمک نرم افزار  SPSS تحلیل شد.
یافته­ها: یافته­های پژوهش، نشان داد درمان متمرکز بر هیجان بطور معناداری سازگاری زناشویی گروه آزمایش را در مقایسه با قبل از آموزش و گروه گواه افزایش داده است.
