The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of Forum's existential therapy and Glasser's reality therapy on the psychological well-being of women with breast cancer. The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test with control group and random assignment. The statistical population of the study included women with breast cancer in Tehran city in the first nine months 2021. The subjects were selected by purposeful sampling from the Tehran Khatam Hospital undergoing surgery and chemotherapy. After completing the psychological well-being scale with random assignment in experimental (n = 12) and control (n = 12) groups. They were assigned. The data were analyzed by analysis of covariance. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two treatment modalities (reality therapy and existential therapy) in post-test dimensions such as Independence, self-acceptance, environmental mastery, positive relationship with others, goal pursuit in life, and personal growth (p> 0.05). Thus, it is concluded that both reality therapy and existential therapy have the same effect on enhancing psychological well-being and can be used as a complement.
