Book Description:
While mental health has been a topic of perpetual concern and interest among college counselors, therapists, pastors, administrators and faculty, recent changes in the university environment and larger culture have caused some significant changes in the field. There are more disturbed students on campus than ever before, more students on medication, more international and exchange students, and more transfer students. With these changes in university population demographics, combined with increased cultural and societal expectations for therapy, counseling, medication, and quick fixes, clinicians working in the college setting have experienced an increased sense of responsibility for intervening, treating, and protecting students. As college counselors, community mental health workers, therapists, university chaplains, and guidance counselors feel this mounting pressure to meet elevated expectations and standards of care, there will be a demand for a practical resource for the treatment of college students in the college environment.
