In the current study, we focused on depression among the undergraduates and developed preventive educational CBT programs that are appropriate for both university classes and counseling services. This study evaluated the group facilitation of a CBT psycho-educational program in university counseling services from the point of Person-Centered Approach. The results led to the following suggestions. (1) There is a need to allow the students to receive their psychological knowledge in a more objective manner. (2) We should not make the transmitting of the psychological knowledge the purpose of the group but respect the students’ way of being and allow for their own way of receiving the psychological knowledge. (3) By aiming for a natural exchange among the students, the group leader should plan for ways to promote that exchange and to make a program that facilitates the student exchange to proceed in a gradual manner.
