Abstract

College students are influenced by diverse cultures in the new era, thus their inner world is rich and changing rapidly. The acceleration of social rhythm can easily lead to different kinds of psychological problems. Mental health education is people-oriented, using scientific methods and means to train high-quality talents with all-round development across the world. A healthy psychological state can promote the sound development of students, make them establish correct core social values, and realize self-value. At present, there are some problems in university mental health education, such as single form and imperfect system. At the same time, college education plays an important role in the formation of ideas for college students’ ideological values. As a front-line student worker, college counselors should cooperate with the school’s psychological departments to improve the college psychological education system, rationally plan the psychological teaching program, and pay attention to the college students’ mental health education. The government should also take into account the need to ensure that the education system is not undermined by the lack of a comprehensive and effective education system.
