The purpose of the current research was to examine cognitive- emotional religious therapy (RCET) on positive psychological states in chronic kidney disease patients. The research was a semi-experimental with pre-test-post-test and control group. The sample included 40 patients whom were selected via convenience sampling method. The subjects were assigned randomly into two experimental and control groups, 20 individuals each. The experimental group was exposed to 15 cognitive- emotional religious therapy (RCET) sessions 90 minutes each. Control group received none. Positive Psychological States Questionnaire (Nessaie, Rajaei and Khoei Nezhad 1390) was implemented to collect data. Multivariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied to analyze data. The results revealed a statically signifcant difference between control and experimental groups concerning the positive psychological states. The research came to the end that the cognitive- emotional religious therapy (RCET) as new approach incremented the spirituality and problem solving in confronting human suffering.
