Abstract
Generation Z’s use of technology inevitably allows them to get a lot of information from all over the world. Excessive information that has not been verified can cause anxiety. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the solution-focused brief therapy approach to reducing anxiety experienced by Generation Z in the era of disruption. This research is an experimental research type of single-subject research. The research subjects were three counselees who were selected using purposive sampling with the initials NI, TS, and WD. The data collection technique in this study was obtained based on the self-assessment sheet that was conducted at the UPT LBK (counseling services center) at Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta. Individual counseling is conducted over two sessions using various techniques in solution-focused brief therapy, including scaling questions and miracle questions. The data analysis technique used quantitative descriptive analysis. The results showed that the anxiety experienced by the counselee could be reduced from very high to very low. Counseling with the solution-focused brief therapy approach has proven to be effective in reducing anxiety experienced by counselees because it offers a more concise and constructive counseling session, according to the characteristics of Generation Z.
