Online learning in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic is an alternative solution that is widely applied by educational institutions in Indonesia. Even so, the application of online learning also raises various problems experienced by students. In order to overcome these various problems, counselors present group counseling services based on cyber counseling. The counseling approach that is quite widely used in group counseling based on cyber counseling is the Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) approach. In its application, cyber counseling has weaknesses related to implementation procedures. Therefore, to make it easier for counselors to provide counseling services in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, this article will discuss an alternative modification of the Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) approach with cognitive disputation techniques in cyber-counseling-based group counseling. This study uses a narrative review method. The data collection method used is the documentation method, then analyzed by content analysis. The results show that the Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) approach with cognitive disputation techniques can be modified to be applied in cyber counseling-based group counseling, in order to overcome various student problems that arise in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The development of information and communication technology has led teenagers to use gadgets and the internet for prolonged periods of time. Besides being used as a means of entertainment and communication, teenagers nowadays tend to search for health information through the internet. However, some people are anxious about their health condition and begin to diagnose themselves or seek certainty on the internet. Excessive searching for health information on the internet can lead to cyberchondria, which is associated with fear and anxiety. To support these efforts, this study aims to analyze the psychological impact of cyberchondria on teenagers. The methodology employed in this study was a literature review that involved five stages: gathering literature, selecting relevant materials, evaluating the literature, drawing conclusions, and discussing the research results, using a total of 12 relevant articles. The results showed that the psychological impact of cyberchondria on teenagers consisted of cognitive, affective, and conative effects. Moreover, cyberchondria can also cause non-specific somatic complaints in teenagers. The findings of this study can serve as a reference for future researchers interested in the topic of cyberchondria
