The study was conducted ten sessions in total, 3 hours once a week, between September and October 2019. Socio-Demographic Questionnaire Form and "Maslach Burnout Scale" were used as data collection tools. Results: While there was a decrease in the burnout levels of the school counselors, in the experimental group after psychodrama, no significant change was found in the measurements made in the control group.
