Synopsis

An essential, research-driven guide that reimagines what it means to support the well-being of today's college students

With concerns about student mental health on the rise, Alexis Redding and contributors draw on expertise across disciplines to offer practical strategies and deep insight for those on the front lines: student affairs professionals, faculty, advisors, counseling center staff, and families. This timely book addresses the most pressing mental health issues facing undergraduates, delivering an actionable blueprint to help colleges build caring, inclusive communities where all students can thrive.

Blending compelling student stories, expert analysis, and actionable strategies, Mental Health in College explores the full spectrum of the college experience: from the pressures of admissions and financial stress to challenges faced by student veterans, community college students, and those navigating post-graduate uncertainty. Each chapter features cutting-edge research alongside innovative "Voices from the Field" vignettes focused on experienced practitioners. The book moves beyond a clinical focus, offering institution-wide solutions and frameworks that promote belonging, resilience, and holistic well-being for all students.

Given our increasing awareness of student mental health concerns, this work equips higher ed professionals with the vision and tools to lead meaningful change. It is both a call to action and a practical playbook for creating a culture of care, ensuring every student has the support they need to succeed―personally, academically, and professionally after graduation.
