This study aims to examine the effect of individual counseling combined with journaling techniques on improving the self-acceptance of eighth-grade students at MTsN 6 Jember. The study employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental design in the form of a one-group pretest–posttest. The subjects consisted of two students from class VIII A who were selected purposively due to their low levels of self-acceptance based on the pretest results. Data were collected using a self-acceptance questionnaire covering five indicators: self-acceptance, self-appreciation, self-satisfaction, willingness to develop oneself, and positive attitudes toward oneself. The self-acceptance questionnaire had been tested for reliability and showed a high level of reliability, indicating that it was appropriate to be used as a research instrument. The results showed an increase in the average self-acceptance score from 125.5 in the pretest (low category) to 201 in the posttest (high category). The paired sample t-test indicated that the calculated t-value (27.58) was higher than the t-table value (12.706), with a significance level of 0.021 (< 0.05), indicating that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected. However, this high t-value needs to be interpreted carefully because the number of subjects was very limited (n=2), so the findings are better understood as an initial indication of improvement in self-acceptance after the intervention. The criterion of success in this study was defined as an improvement of at least one category in self-acceptance, and the results confirmed that this criterion was achieved. Therefore, it can be concluded that individual counseling using journaling techniques has a significant positive effect on enhancing students’ self-acceptance. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for the development of more reflective and emotionally responsive guidance and counseling services in schools.
