Background & Objective: Considering the prevalence of divorce in most countries as well as in Iran, and since divorce often affects the whole family, it is very important to understand the phenomenon of divorce. The lived experience of couples applying for divorce can help to identify the phenomenon of divorce. On the other hand, based on the systemic approaches of family therapy, the couple's family of origin can play an important role in the formation of conflicts in the life of the couple, so the present study aims to investigate the phenomenological reasons for divorce, emphasizing the role of the family of origin among the couples applying for divorce in Yazd province.

Conclusion: The findings showed that, based on the lived experiences of couples applying for divorc, financial, cultural, and psychological reasons can constitute the main components of the reasons for couples' divorce, and the couples' family of origin can also play an effective role in the formation of these reasons.
