The research results show that the application of group counseling using role play techniques can have a positive impact on reducing bullying behavior at Tahfidz House. Role play techniques involve various situations related to bullying, both as victims, perpetrators, and witnesses, to increase understanding and empathy for the negative impacts of bullying and increase students' awareness of the importance of respecting each other, maintaining each other's feelings, and creating a safe and comfortable environment at Tahfidz House.
