This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of a "solution-focused group counseling program to increase healthy Internet use" and "group guidance to increase healthy Internet use" to increase healthy Internet use among young people. The study group for the research comprised 39 university students (22 females 56%, 17 males 44%). In this study, the Personal Information Form, Interview Form and Problematic Internet Use Scale were used as data collection tools. Analysis of data used the ANOVA for mixed measures and content analysis of interviews with participants in the solution-focused group counseling program about increasing healthy Internet use about their experiences. In the results of the research, it was determined that the solution-focused group was more effective than the guidance group and the control group. It was determined that the guidance group was also more effective than the control group. In addition, it was determined that this differentiation in the groups continued to be effective in the follow-up measurements made 3 months after the completion of the application.
