Abstract
In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis between reality therapy and paradox therapy
approaches for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in traumatized adolescents. This research,
undertaken through a comprehensive library review, draws upon research findings from various
databases including ISI, SID, Magiran, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, SCOPUS, and JCR. Among the 31
studies analyzed, encompassing both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, the focus was on
research conducted within the past eight years. Our findings suggest that paradox therapy emphasizes
the consolidation of the patient's psychological foundation or self by introducing mechanisms to address
the conflict between personal perception (real anxiety) and this is done by creating and developing
mechanisms to resolve the conflict between the institution and the objective facts (real anxiety) and
change the value and meaning of signs related to unfortunate or traumatic events. Notably, this approach
offers advantages in terms of efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Conversely, reality therapy centers on
fostering emotional engagement with the illness, emotions, thoughts, and related symptoms encouraging
