The aim of this research is to examine the effect of solution-focused psychological counseling based group counseling on primary school students. Data was collected from 95 students. As a result of the analyses, a randomly selected experimental group of nine people and a control group were formed. In the study, the Child Form of the Bullying Determine Scale was used as a data collection tool. The data was analyzed using the independent and paired sample t-test. The analyses were conducted using SPSS 26 at a significance level of .05. As a result of the analyzes made, it was found that the group counseling sessions based on solution-focused counseling applied to students who were exposed to peer bullying made a statistically significant difference in favor of the experimental group. In the control group, in which no counseling session was held, no change occurred. The findings obtained in the research were discussed in the context of the relevant literature.
