Quazi-experimental method was used on a sample of (30) old women who were randomly selected and divided into two groups, experimental (15) and control (15).

The results show that there were differences in means of the experimental group between the pre- and post- measurements of the adjustment disorder's scale after the application of the counseling program.

However, there were no differences in means of the control group between the pre- and post- measurements of the adjustment disorder's scale after the application of the counseling program.
