<![CDATA[This study focuses on describing and analyzing guidance and counseling service strategies for children with special needs, particularly those with autism, at SKH Pandita, Serang City. The primary objective is to understand how these strategies are designed and implemented to meet the unique needs of each student. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including direct observation, in-depth interviews with guidance and counseling teachers, parents, and other support staff, and documentation of service activities. The research results show that the guidance and counseling service strategy at SKH Pandita is designed individually and tailored to the characteristics of autistic students. Collaboration between guidance and counseling teachers, parents, and medical personnel is key to its successful implementation. The strategies implemented include the use of an individual approach, visual media to strengthen understanding, and positive reinforcement to foster adaptive behavior. The counseling program also focuses on developing social skills, emotional management, and increasing student independence. Despite challenges such as limited expertise and supporting facilities, the implementation of planned strategies and school support have had a positive impact on the psychosocial development of autistic students. This research underscores the importance of a collaborative and adaptive approach in providing guidance and counseling services to children with special needs.]]>
