The aims of the current study were to detect the effectiveness of a counseling program using artistry activities to reduce violence among middle school students in Kuwait. In order to achieve this goal, the study was conducted on a sample of 30 students from middle school in Kuwait aged 13- (15) years, were divided into two groups: an experimental group of (15) students, the program was applied to them, and a group of 15 students who were not exposed to any programs. The results indicated that there were statistically significant differences between the average scores of the experimental group members in the tribal and sub-indices for the measure of violence in favor of the post-measurement, which indicates a reduction in the violence behavior of the experimental group. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the control and experimental groups in the dimensional measurement of the violence scale in favor of the experimental group. Which confirms the effectiveness of the therapeutic counseling program by using technical activities in reducing violence among middle school students. The results also found that there are no significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental group scores in the two dimensions and the follow-up of the violence scale, which confirms the continued effectiveness of the program used in this study.
