Abstract

Background: University students from diverse cultural backgrounds face significant mental health challenges, yet conventional counseling approaches often fail to address culturally specific needs, resulting in underutilization and suboptimal outcomes.Objective: This study investigated the effectiveness and implementation challenges of culturally adapted counseling interventions for university students.Method: A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was employed. A total of 480 students across five Southeast Asian universities were allocated to either a culturally adapted counseling intervention (CACI) or standard counseling (SC) condition, with outcomes assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and three-month follow-up. Additionally, 102 stakeholders, including students, counselors, administrators, and cultural representatives, participated in qualitative interviews and focus groups.Findings and Implications: Results demonstrated that CACI produced significantly greater reductions in depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms compared to SC, with large effect sizes ranging from 0.74 to 0.82. Improvements in quality of life, academic self-efficacy, and career confidence were also observed, with benefits maintained at follow-up. Cultural background moderated intervention effects, with Indigenous and Middle Eastern students showing the largest gains. However, implementation analysis revealed substantial challenges, including time constraints, limited resources, and inadequate institutional support.Conclusion: These findings provide robust evidence that culturally adapted interventions enhance mental health outcomes while highlighting the necessity of systemic organizational changes to ensure sustainable implementation in university counseling services.

Abstract

Background: International students face distinctive career development challenges compounded by mental health concerns and inadequate institutional support systems, yet career counseling interventions remain insufficiently tailored to their specialized needs.Objective: This study examined career counseling interventions for international students by analyzing support systems, mental health challenges, and professional development strategies to identify evidence-based practices for integrated service delivery.Method: A convergent parallel mixed-methods design was employed, involving 180 international students who completed quantitative surveys and 28 students and 14 practitioners who participated in qualitative interviews, supplemented by document analysis of 47 institutional materials.Findings and Implications: Findings revealed profound cultural misalignment between generic career services and international students' needs, with 65.6% of participants demonstrating poor psychological well-being and mental health serving as a partial mediator in relationships between institutional support and professional development competency. Peer networks functioned as compensatory support systems, while document analysis exposed substantial gaps between institutional diversity commitments and operational realities. The study advances theoretical frameworks by demonstrating career development and mental health as inseparable domains for international students, necessitating integrated intervention models.Conclusion: Systemic transformation of career counseling services is urgently needed to ensure equitable support that facilitates international students' professional integration and success in an increasingly interconnected global landscape.

Abstract

Background: Suicide remains the second leading cause of death among youth aged 10-24 years in the United States, with rates continuing to rise despite prevention efforts. Understanding current counseling intervention practices and factors associated with treatment effectiveness is critical for improving suicide prevention outcomes among this vulnerable population.Objective: This study examined counseling interventions for youth suicide prevention, identified psychosocial risk factors prioritized by mental health professionals, and determined factors associated with treatment effectiveness.Method: A quantitative cross-sectional survey was administered to 364 licensed mental health professionals across the United States. Data were collected on intervention approaches, psychosocial risk factor assessment practices, protective factors emphasis, treatment outcomes, counselor characteristics, and barriers to effective intervention. Hierarchical multiple regression and correlational analyses were conducted to identify predictors of treatment effectiveness.Findings and Implications: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy were most frequently utilized, with DBT demonstrating superior effectiveness. Specialized training, protective factors emphasis, and barrier severity emerged as significant predictors of treatment effectiveness, explaining 47% of outcome variance. Results inform training programs, organizational practices, and policy reforms needed to enhance suicide prevention services.Conclusion: Effective youth suicide prevention requires evidence-based clinical practices, specialized counselor training, and systemic reforms addressing organizational and policy barriers to quality care delivery.

Abstract

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased anxiety-related disorders, particularly claustrophobia. Factors like prolonged lockdowns and mask-wearing have triggered or exacerbated claustrophobic symptoms, even in individuals without prior tendencies. The importance of developing evidence-based counseling strategies to address such post-pandemic mental health issues is crucial.Objective: This study aims to document and assess the effectiveness of a multimodal counseling strategy for treating claustrophobia that emerged or intensified during the pandemic. The goal is to provide a practical framework for addressing this specific phobia in clinical practice.Method: A case study methodology was employed, focusing on a 32-year-old female who exhibited severe claustrophobic symptoms post-pandemic. A 12-session intervention integrated cognitive-behavioral techniques, psychoeducation, graduated exposure, and mindfulness-based strategies. Data collection included standardized measures and self-reports across multiple assessment points.Findings and Implications: The treatment resulted in a 72% reduction in claustrophobia severity and significant improvements in general anxiety and stress levels. The integration of multiple therapeutic approaches proved effective in reducing symptoms and improving functional capacity. These findings suggest that multimodal interventions can be a robust solution for pandemic-induced claustrophobia and other anxiety disorders.Conclusion: The study highlights the effectiveness of multimodal counseling for claustrophobia, demonstrating significant symptom reduction and functional recovery. The results offer a clinically replicable framework for treating claustrophobia in post-pandemic contexts and suggest directions for future research and practice.

Abstract

Background: High school students face increasing levels of academic stress, peer pressure, and future-related anxiety, which negatively impact their mental health and self-efficacy. Understanding effective interventions to address these psychological challenges is critical for supporting adolescent development and academic performance.Objective: This study examines the effectiveness of mindfulness-based counseling techniques in managing stress and improving self-efficacy among high school students.Method: Using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group, this research involved 120 students aged 15-17 years from two public high schools. The experimental group received eight weekly sessions of mindfulness-based counseling interventions, including breathing exercises, body scan meditation, mindful awareness practices, and cognitive restructuring techniques. Data were collected using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), and Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS).Findings and Implications: Results revealed significant improvements in the experimental group compared to the control group, with decreased stress levels and increased self-efficacy scores. The intervention also enhanced students' emotional regulation, attention focus, and coping mechanisms. These findings suggest that mindfulness-based counseling techniques offer practical and effective tools for school counselors to address adolescent stress and promote psychological resilience.Conclusion: Mindfulness-based counseling interventions demonstrate significant effectiveness in reducing stress and enhancing self-efficacy among high school students, providing evidence-based strategies for school-based mental health support programs.
