Abstract

This research is motivated by the increasing need for counselling approaches that are not only practically effective, but also grounded in a strong philosophical foundation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), as the dominant approach in modern guidance and counselling practice, needs to be studied in depth through the perspectives of ontology, epistemology, and axiology so that it is not understood merely as an intervention technique. The purpose of this research is to explore the essence of CBT and to identify the contributions of Aaron T. Beck and Albert Ellis to the development of guidance and counselling. This study employs a philosophical qualitative approach using a literature study method that analyses various relevant scientific sources. The results of the study show that ontologically, CBT views humans as rational beings capable of changing their mindset and behaviour through cognitive processes. Epistemologically, CBT is grounded in empirical evidence and systematic scientific validation. Axiologically, CBT is oriented toward adaptive behavioural change and the improvement of individual well-being. Beck's contribution lies in the development of an empirically based cognitive model, while Ellis emphasises rationality and the modification of irrational beliefs. The study concludes that CBT makes a significant theoretical and practical contribution to improving the effectiveness of guidance and counselling services.

Abstract

In the context of 21st-century education, the increasing problems of student behavior and mental health require an individual empowerment-based counseling approach such as Reality Counseling which emphasizes internal control and conscious choice to overcome academic failure and build students' positive identities. This article aims to explore in depth the Reality Therapy approach developed by William Glasser and its relevance in the context of modern education. As an approach focused on the present and personal responsibility, Reality Counseling offers a practical framework through Choice Theory. The method used in this paper is a narrative literature study synthesizing various primary and secondary sources, including material from the William Glasser Institute. Key findings suggest that human behavior is driven by five basic genetic needs: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun. Through the concept of Total Behavior and the WDEP (Wants, Direction, Evaluation, Planning) Model, counselors can guide students to evaluate the effectiveness of their own behavior and develop more constructive action plans. Implications for guidance and counseling (BK) practice in schools include strengthening teacher-student relationships, increasing responsibility for learning, and developing a success identity. This article concludes that the systematic implementation of Reality Counseling can create a school environment without failure (Schools Without Failure) that supports the psychological well-being and academic achievement of students
