Abstract

The article examines school bullying as a serious socio-psychological problem that is widespread among students all over the world and leads to serious consequences for their mental health and academic motivation. In Armenia, bullying is also a pressing issue, but there is no legislative regulation in this area. The study seeks to identify effective strategies for assisting students experiencing bullying. Bullying is defined as a form of psychological violence that includes constant bullying and humiliation. Research indicates its negative impact on the psycho-emotional state of the victim, leading to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, as well as on the educational process, reducing motivation and academic performance. The article describes specific cases of bullying, emphasizing the need for comprehensive socio-psychological support. The authors offer various methods and psychotherapeutic approaches to assist victims of bullying, including working with self-esteem, developing confident behavior, and strengthening mental resilience.
