Depression is a major public health problem around the world. Negative automatic thoughts are cognitive errors that build in the mind, leading to depression. Cognitive-reminiscence therapy is one of the most effective psychosocial methods for managing cognitive errors. This study aimed to evaluate cognitive reminiscence therapy’s feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness among Jordanian patients with major depressive disorder. A convergent-parallel design was employed. A convenience sampling method was used to recruit 36 participants (Site 1:  n  = 16, Site 2:  n  = 20). A total of 31 participants were included in the analysis, divided into six groups, with 5–6 participants in each group. Cognitive-reminiscence therapy included eight supported sessions of up to 2 h each, delivered over 4 wk. Recruitment, adherence, retention, and attrition rates of 80%, 86.1%, and 13.9%, respectively, indicated the feasibility of the therapy. The acceptability of therapy was reflected in the following four themes:  Positive Cognitive Reminiscence Therapy Perspectives and Outcomes; Cognitive Reminiscence Therapy Sessions Challenge; Suggestions for Improving Cognitive Reminiscence Therapy Sessions; and Motivational Home Activities . A significant reduction in the mean of depressive symptoms and negative automatic thoughts and a significant increase in the self-transcendence mean demonstrated the effectiveness of the intervention. The study’s results suggest that cognitive reminiscence therapy is feasible and acceptable among patients with major depressive disorder. This therapy is a promising nursing intervention to reduce depressive symptoms and negative automatic thoughts and increase self-transcendence for those patients.
