The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the efficacy of self-compassion oriented mindfulness training on worry and resilience in the sexually abused girls with emphasis on culture. The statistical population was the whole client girls with sexually abused of Ostad Shahriar Psychology Clinic in Ardabil on the year 2021. Thirty sexually abused girls were selected through the purposive sampling method and randomly assigned into two equal experimental and control groups. The research was semi-experimental of pretest, posttest with control group and follow-up phase. To evaluate the subjects Pennsylvania Worry Questionnaire (Meyer & et al, 1990) and Resilience Questionnaireof Conner and Davidson(2003) were implemented. The experimental group received 8 weeks of self-compassion oriented mindfulness training; 90 minutes each session. Two months after the end of the training sessions the follow-up phase was done. The control group did not receive any intervention. Data were analyzed by Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The results of the comparison of the two groups posttest indicated that the experimental and control groups score significantly differed(p<0.01). Concerning the obtained results, it could be concluded that self-compassion oriented mindfulness training was effective on the worry and resilience in the sexually abused girls. The results were consistent after the two months follow up.
