Research highlights the significant economic and social ramifications that, when infidelity leads to divorce, disrupt family dynamics and can have long-lasting negative effects on the individuals involved. The study poses the following inquiry: How can a therapist establish a safe and supportive space for couples to investigate the underlying causes of infidelity, and devise strategies for communication and conflict resolution? In what ways can counseling assist couples in the process of reestablishing trust, fortifying their dedication to their relationship, and devising strategies for the future of their marriage? This qualitative case study implemented grounded theory methodology in order to enhance comprehension of infidelity and devise more effective intervention strategies. The participants were deliberately chosen from married couples who were seeking counseling at a Tehran counseling facility. In order to acquire a comprehensive comprehension of the therapeutic process, one couple participated in in-depth, semi-structured interviews during their 14 therapy sessions, each of which lasted a minimum of 90 minutes. This sampling method enabled a concentrated investigation of the ways in which therapy can address infidelity.The results indicate that infidelity is influenced by a variety of factors, including a lack of communication, a weak emotional connection, differing values, inappropriate workplace relationships, social media misuse, and negative familial experiences. The study also highlights the importance of improved communication, stronger emotional connection, healthy boundaries with extended family, a focus on “us” as a couple, and a personal connection to a higher power (if applicable) in rebuilding trust and strengthening the marriage during treatment.

Pictorial carpets, the result of combining tradition with modernity, peaked during Qajar rule. The themes of these carpets include literary stories, religious motifs, animal depictions, ancient Iranian relics, and portraits of monarchs. A distinctive category also emerged, where the image of a woman replaced traditional patterns. This research aims to identify a rare hand-woven carpet design from the Qajar period featuring the bust of a woman and investigate the creation of the design from Panofsky's iconographic point of view. The research questions are: what was the catalyst for the emergence of women’s images in Qajar pictorial carpets, and what concealed messages do these images convey? The objective of this research is fundamental, and the methodology is descriptive-analytical. Data was collected through library resources, and three carpets depicting the bust of a woman were the studied samples. The appearance of women’s images in Qajar carpets was influenced by the concurrent creation of these carpets with the Qajar era, the expansion of relations with Europe, the prevalence of lithographic printing, the introduction of photography and postcards, naturalistic painting, humanistic thought, changes in clothing style, social and political roles of women, and the abundance of women’s images in Qajar art. The imagery of these carpets is in harmony with numerous advancements of their era, as evidenced by the alignment of artists with the movements of the time. influenced by the social, political, and cultural conditions and unaware of Europeans Orientalism, Qajar carpet weavers reflect the currents and developments of the society in carpets.
