Domestic violence causes stress and post-traumatic stress disorder in the people victim of violence. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of unified trans-diagnostic treatment on the experiential avoidance and suicidal ideation in the girls victim of domestic violence. The present study was quasi-experimental with pretest, posttest, control group and two-month follow-up design. The statistical population included the girls victim of domestic violence in In the first six months of 2019. 30 people were selected through purposive sampling method and they were randomly accommodated into experimental and control groups. The research instruments included the questionnaire of experienced domestic violence (Aghakhani et.al, 1994), experiential avoidance questionnaire (Bond et al, 2010), suicidal ideation questionnaire (Beck et al, 2010). The data were analyzed through repeated measurement ANOVA. The results of the study showed that the unified trans-diagnostic treatment is effective on the experiential avoidance (F=50.02, Eta=0.64, p≥001) and suicidal ideation (F=46.04, Eta=0.62, P≥0001) in the girls victim of domestic violence. The findings of the present study prove that the unified trans-diagnostic treatment can be used as an efficient treatment to decrease the experiential avoidance and suicidal ideation in the girls victim of domestic violence through employing techniques such as diagnosing emotions, training emotional awareness, cognitive reevaluation, diagnosing emotion avoidance models and investigating the behaviors which are the result of emotion.
