Arms and Interventions

| Experimental: intervention<br>Narrative group counseling consists of 8 sessions and will be applied to the intervention group by the researcher. | Other: Narrative Group Counseling<br>* Two of the principles that explain how narrative therapy works are: to always maintain a stance of curiosity on the part of the practitioner and to ask questions to which the practitioner does not actually know the answers and to which the answer is known to the participants. To guide therapeutic conversations that include these questions, Michael White and David Epston have designed a series of conversation maps in the application of narrative therapy. Taking these maps into consideration, the sessions were planned with the guidance of relevant literature and structured with expert opinions. Group counseling will be applied to the intervention group once a week in 8 sessions. The application will be carried out face to face, in a calm, quiet and bright classroom where the circle seating plan will be made. 90 min. The duration of a group session is 10 minutes once. It will be completed with a break.<br>|
| Active Comparator: Control<br>For the control group, stress coping interviews will be held after the information meeting, apart from the students' routine practices. | Other: stress coping interviews<br>* In addition to the students' routine practices, four sessions of stress coping interviews will be held for the control group, with an interval of two weeks, after the information meeting.<br>|
