This experimental study sought to explore the impact of group cognitive behavioral counseling in reducing levels of anxiety and depression and improving social support, among a purposive sample of female patients with Diabetes Mellitus type 2 and Hypertension at Mafraq Comprehensive Medical Center- Jordan. The participants were divided randomly into two groups, an experimental group n=15, who received counseling program based on the cognitive behavior therapy and a control group n=15 who didn’t receive any counseling program. Results of pretest to posttest differences for the experimental and control groups on the study scales revealed that the treatment group compared to control group, was significantly more likely to have lower anxiety and depressive symptoms. Further, results of pre-post- follow-up tests comparisons for each of the dependent variables for the experimental group showed that while grades on anxiety and depression improved significantly, to become lower, grades on social support regressed to become lower in follow-up test, but the difference was not significant.
