Abstract

Sexual behavior problems among adolescents are an increasingly concerning issue, as they impact both mental and physical well-being as well as society as a whole. Counseling interventions play a vital role in addressing this issue by providing the necessary psychosocial and educational support to change the risk of sexual behavior. Effective counseling intervention programs not only provide information about sexual risks and responsibilities but also offer the emotional support needed to make lasting changes. Approaches that actively engage adolescents through interactive discussions and practical training help them understand and overcome the social pressures that lead to risky sexual behaviors. Based on previous studies, the aim of this article is to share information regarding the current scenarios faced by adolescents. This discussion will also focus on past research findings related to adolescent sexual behavior while offering insights into current issues surrounding counseling interventions targeted at adolescents to address matters of sexuality.
