Abstract

Traumatic events can be experienced by anyone who is still alive. The role of counselors in schools is certainly very helpful in solving students’ traumatic problems. Traumatic counseling is one type of counseling for clients with special needs. Counselors need to master this type of counseling because every client is at risk of experiencing a traumatic event that can lead to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This article aims to understand what happens in PTSD cases in schools and how techniques can be used in dealing with PTSD cases. The techniques discussed in this paper are EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Religious techniques. EMDR is one of the counseling approaches in handling trauma cases that are reported to have high efficacy. Indonesia, which has religious diversity, is a consideration. The application of EMDR in Indonesia needs to be combined with the culture and religiosity of the community.
