The present research focuses on studying islamic multifacets model in depression therapy and comparing it with beck's cognitive model. these models were used for 12 female clients who referred to counseling center and were recognized as depressed individuals based on dsm-iv. it is notable that 4 and 8 subjects were undergone therapy via beck's model and islamic model, respectively. since the research was case study, clinical interview and beck's depression scale were utilized. accordingly, both of test groups completed beck's depression scale in pre-therapy stage (baseline) during fourth, eighth, and twelfth sessions, as well as in post-therapy stage at follow-up stage (three months after finished therapy). then, data collected were analyzed and scores of pretest and posttest stages were compared. research findings demonstrated that both models were effective in depression therapy; but major differences in association with their applications and functions were observed. as a result of comparing scores available, it was found that islamic multifacets model was more influential in the therapy of depression. moreover, first test group had less improvement than second group in posttest stage and returned to some symptoms of depression during follow-up stage, while second test group individuals stayed in improvement limit after therapy course and even some of them had more improvement. in addition, time of therapy by islamic multifacets model was shorter. alongside such findings, some advantages of islamic multifacets model compared to beck's cognitive model in depression therapy have been debated.
