STRATEGY OF GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING TEACHERS IN INTEGRATING ISLAMIC VALUES IN COUNSELING SERVICES AT AL-IKHLASIAH SCHOOL

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the strategies of guidance and counseling teachers in integrating Islamic values into counseling services at Al-Ikhlasiah School. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with case studies, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation of guidance and counseling teachers, principals, Islamic Religious Education teachers, and students. The results of the study indicate that guidance and counseling teachers implement a counseling curriculum development strategy based on Islamic values, individual and group counseling approaches with spiritual content, role models in counseling practices, and collaboration with religious teachers and parents. The main challenges faced include differences in religious understanding, limited training, and lack of family support. Nevertheless, the integration of Islamic values has been shown to increase the effectiveness of counseling services and contribute positively to the formation of students' noble character. This study recommends increasing professional training and strengthening synergy between schools, families, and communities to optimize counseling services based on Islamic values.
