Abstract
This paper is an exploration of Non-Suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) in adolescents to provide counsellors with a better understanding of the scope of NSSI through a behavioral and trauma-informed lens, as well as familiarize them with the efficacy of different counselling approaches used to treat NSSI. NSSI is prevalent among adolescents and can be addressed through counselling, however there is limited research available on targeted treatments for NSSI. The paper concludes with a proposed 7-part group counselling plan for adolescents who are engaging in NSSI.
