Maktab Tarighat Oveyssi (M.T.O) Sufi Psychology provides a psychological method based on the teachings of the M.T.O Shahmaghsoudi School of Islamic Sufism. Sufi Psychology aims to address physical and spiritual aspects of patients in order to foster a sense of identity that is not limited to a diagnostic status or an emotional state. The present work provides an overview of what Sufi Psychology is and how it builds on current gold-standard psychotherapeutic practices. We also present data from a bottom-up, practice-based observational study in which male and female patients from various cultural and religious backgrounds received Sufi Psychotherapy and provided self-report measures of distress, perceived stress, hope, and resilience. Results from multilevel models fit to examine within- and between-person variance and change over time indicated significant reductions in therapeutic, relationship, psychological, spiritual, and critical distress. Hope and resilience were already high at baseline, and no significant changes in these measures were found. This work serves as a foundational model for future research and writings on Sufi Psychology, as the evidence base is extremely limited, with directives for research models to further demonstrate the efficacy of this treatment approach.

马卡塔提里格·奥维西（Maktab Tarighat Oveyssi，简称 M.T.O）苏菲心理学提供了一种基于 M.T.O 沙赫马格苏德伊斯兰苏菲主义学派教义的心理学方法。苏菲心理学旨在解决患者的身体和精神方面的问题，以培养一种超越诊断状态或情绪状态的认同感。本工作概述了什么是苏菲心理学，以及它如何建立在当前的黄金标准心理治疗实践基础上。我们还展示了一项自下而上、基于实践的观察性研究的数据，该研究中来自不同文化和宗教背景的男性和女性患者接受了苏菲心理治疗，并提供了困扰、感知压力、希望和适应力的自我报告衡量标准。适用于检查个体内和个体间差异以及随时间变化的多层次模型的结果表明，治疗、关系、心理、精神和关键困扰方面有显著减少。希望和适应力在基线时已经很高，这些衡量标准没有发现显著变化。这项工作为未来关于苏菲心理学的研究和著作提供了基础模型，因为证据基础非常有限，需要研究模型来进一步证明这种治疗方法的疗效。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2022 APA，保留所有权利）。
