"Catering the difficulties and challenges of secondary school students is delicate. Receiving adequate information and\r\nsupport both mentally and emotionally at this stage is crucial for their development shortly before and after they\r\ngraduate school, thus needing serious attention from school counsellors. Conducting comprehensive and effective\r\ncounselling programmes addressing the said issues requires identification of the specific needs of their students. This\r\nstudy was conducted to identify the components of counselling needs perceived as important by secondary school\r\nstudents themselves. This study applied the qualitative research design with phenomenological techniques due to its\r\nrelevance in describing and understanding the components of counselling needs outlined by the research objective. The\r\nparticipants involved 16 secondary school students who were purposively selected from two secondary schools in\r\nSelangor, Malaysia. The data were collected through semi-structured focus group interview sessions and analysed\r\nusing the Thematic Analysis method. From the analysis, it was found that the components of counselling needs\r\nperceived as important by the research participants are grouped into six different categories; leading with personal\r\ndevelopment needs, then emotional needs, career development needs, academic needs, peer relationship needs, and\r\nfamily needs respectively. Other than helping school counsellors strategise their work in assisting students to endure\r\ntheir life challenges, the identified counselling needs components can also assist researchers in developing instruments\r\nrelated to counselling needs assessment.
