Although various efforts have been made, tobacco use among adolescents is still high. If these habits are not prevented in the early stages, smokers will be more difficult to stop after becoming hardcore smokers. Unbeknownst to them, they began to rely on cigarettes to feel calm. There are many reasons one starts smoking: being influenced by peers and the media, releasing work stress and life stress, and environmental factors such as living with smokers. The purpose of the study was to explore the experience of school counsellors in managing school students involved in smoking behaviour and to identify the effectiveness of the interventions used by the school counsellor in managing the behaviour of smoking school students. This study uses a qualitative approach and adopts a descriptive case study to explore the counsellor's experience in managing smoking behaviour among high school students—the method of semi-structured interviews with five study participants. The data collection process has been used using the data triangulation process. Through thematic analysis, there are four themes of study 1) counselor knowledge of counsellor's experience in managing smoking behaviour, 2) counselor knowledge of drug abuse counselling practices, 3) prevention intervention by counsellors in managing smoking behaviour and 4) counselor challenges in managing students who smoke. The findings show that knowledge, qualifications, and skills in drug abuse counselling tend to produce effective interventions in managing smoking students in schools. In this regard, the findings of this study open up opportunities for the school community to understand the concept of counselling intervention in drug and cigarette abuse. This way can also provide a clear picture of the proper counselling intervention for students involved in smoking behaviour and improve the quality of designing their intervention methods.
