To help a student or young person who were bullied, mental professionals such as counselors need to understand that bullying is aggressive behavior that is intentional and that involves an imbalance of power or strength. Children who were bullied need support and encouragement to tell what has happened to them and to talk about their feelings. They also need protection from future bullying.
By establishing a strong, positive relationships with adults and peers, bullied children can fee where they belong and stop blaming themselves for the bullying. In extreme cases, bullied children need support with post traumatic stress symptoms, even after the bullying has been stopped.
