This program was focused on enhancement of self-esteem and decreasement of depression and anger. The subjects were recruited from the middle school students who were refered to counseling for school-unadjustment problems. They were screened by school teachers by using school-unadjustment rating scale and then they were divided into experimental and control groups. The total number of sessions consisted of 10 sessions during the 5 week period, each session lasted for 90 minutes. The self-esteem scale, depression scale, anger scale, school-unadjustment scale, teacher’s evaluation of adolescent’s problematic behavior scale were used. The results showed that at post-tset, the subjects who participated in counseling group reported significant improvements on school-unadjustment, self-esteem, anger scales which were self-rating and frequency of problem behaviors and student’s attitudes at school-life which were teacher-rating, while control group didn’t report significant improvements.
