10. Summary of project results:

This study presents an overview of interpersonal relationship difficulties faced by adults, encompassing family and romantic relationships. It also outlines global research on interpersonal relationships, particularly among adults, and covers concepts such as adulthood, trauma, cognitive-behavioral approaches, Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, attachment theory, assessment of influencing factors, self-connection skills, and the establishment and maintenance of interpersonal relationships in social environments. Furthermore, the study discusses methods for assessing and supporting sleep improvement, enhancing communication and problem-solving skills, managing emotions, and increasing self-esteem to help clients improve their relationships with others and enhance their future coping abilities.

The results of the support program showed that clients experienced a reduced impact of daytime life on their sleep, improved sleep quality, improved perception distortions that no longer affected them, increased quality of connection with themselves and their families, improved ability to identify and manage emotions, identify and plan solutions to problems, and thus increased self-esteem. Clients were able to proactively apply the techniques discussed during therapy to manage their emotions and communicate appropriately with those around them.

11. Practical applications:

The results obtained during the theoretical and practical research on psychological support in this project have contributed further evidence for the application of cognitive behavioral therapy in providing psychological support to adults with difficulties in interpersonal relationships. In addition, the limitations of the project have also provided new practitioners with valuable lessons to improve the effectiveness of future support sessions.
