Intervention strategies and counseling approaches for school-based academic stress management

Abstract

The response of an individual when facing something can be classified as a form of stress; if it occurs in students who experience symptoms caused by academic activities that can cause stress, this can be classified as a form of academic stress. Counselors must provide intervention services to help kids manage their academic stress because this issue cannot be left untreated. This research aims to determine and analyze the approaches and techniques used in handling academic stress experienced by students. The method for carrying out this research is a literature review which is an activity of collecting, reading, studying, and researching the research topic. Data collection was assisted by the Publish or Perish 7 application with library sources via Google School, Science Direct, and the open-access journal directory. The results of the study show that the implementation of the intervention is carried out through individual counseling and group counseling services.
