Abstract
The current study aims to shed light on cognitive-behavioral therapy as one of the most significant therapeutic programs proposed to address and mitigate bullying problems within the school environment. It is based on a tri-dimensional perspective that integrates behavior, thoughts, and emotions. The study reviews several definitions of this therapy while highlighting the most modern techniques used to reduce bullying behavior in children according to this approach. These techniques include assertiveness training, problem-solving, relaxation, role-playing, reinforcement, and self-regulation in children.
The importance of this study lies in its theoretical foundation, providing a wealth of scientific material to researchers in the field of cognitive-behavioral therapy. Mastery of these techniques facilitates their practical application and implementation by specialists in the field.
